Makers and hobbyists that are looking for a capacitive touch sensor for a project, might be interested in a new touch sensor board called the EasyTouch. The EasyTouch capacitive touch sensor can be ...

Hackaday has seen a ton of builds make use of the Arduino CapSense library of late, so it was only a matter of time before we posted a capacitive sensing game controller that is able to move sprites ...

Arduino based projects are quite complicated and is no cake walk for beginners in this field. Interfacing a tablet with the microcontroller is a daunting task. Let see how its done here. Arduino based ...

Electronic and Arduino enthusiasts may be interested in a new creation by developer Paul Bartek, who has created an Arduino touchscreen display in the form of the Sunflower Shield. The new hardware ...

[Ben Bradley], a member of Freeside Atlanta, built a capacitive touch Jankó keyboard for the Georgia Tech Moog Hackathon. Jankó Keyboards are a 19th-Century attempt to add a more compact piano ...

In a world increasingly dominated by touchscreens, a London design studio is taking an approach to touch that's both low(er)-tech and innovative at the same time. Bare Conductive raised over ...

This module allows the user to wire up an Arduino to any conductive interface (fruits, cans, ect.) and play sounds using that interface. It can be used to create sounds in an integrated system or ...

Electromechanical switches are simple, cheap, and widely available (Fig. 1). However, they’re also plagued with a number of disadvantages, including wear with repeated use, and the potential for ...

Fig 1. In capacitive touchscreens, the signal in SNR is the measured amount of change in mutual capacitance as a direct result of finger capacitance. Finger capacitance depends on the sensor cover ...
