A touch sensor, especially a capacitive touch sensor, has some surprisingly sophisticated electronics to detect a fingertip. Luckily, little capacitive touch sensor/switch modules are widely available ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed ...

The sensor forms an image and OpenCV detects the actual touch configuration. It appears you can use the raw data from the Arduino, too, but it might be a little harder.

Capacitive sensing isn't limited to your smartphone. In fact, you can use contact with human skin (or any other conductive surface) to trigger almost any circuit. And the Touch Board from Bare ...

Hi, I am trying to test a capacitive touch sensor. Specifically, I want to show that it registers a specific change in capacitance. Capacitance is defined as: C = A * Eo * Er / d A = Surface Area ...

Many people mistake the growth in capacitive touch sensors as the adoption of new technology. But the fact is advances in mixed-signal programmable devices, those that combine analog and digital ...

A finger-heating effect has been observed on mutual capacitive touch sensors with plastic film overlay. The symptom is exhibited as serious sensitivity degradation when there is a greater than 10°C ...

Capacitive Touch Sensors The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring ...
