This is a touch sensing circuit based on the principle of capacitive voltage division. It employs differential measurement techniques, which effectively reduce interference from environmental noise, ...

This is a very simple touch sensor switch that is build with the 555 timer IC. You just need to touch the metal plate and the relay gets energised and is kept in this state for about 100 seconds, then ...

Overview This project turns a plant into a musical instrument using capacitive touch sensing technology inspired by Disney's Touché sensor. By integrating a custom Arduino setup, the system detects ...

A simple AVR microcontroller based circuit that can detect when you touch a metal probe connected to one of the mcu inputs. A simple AVR microcontroller based circuit that can detect when you touch a ...

[HankDavis] sent along this link to a video showing a tutorial on how to make touch sensors using a “darlington pair”. In the video we are taken through the idea and how we’re going to construct it.

Alex Knapp is a Forbes senior editor covering healthcare and science. Scientists at the Technical University Munich have developed a robot with a sensitive "skin"-- groupings of hexagonal sensors that ...
