From Merlin Systems Wiki

Stretch Sensors provide a unique method of making displacement measurements. The Stretch Sensor is small, flexible and easy to use.

Stretch Sensors are like resistors, the more you stretch the higher the resistance, release the tension and the sensor will return to the resting resistance value.
