This Arduino Get Started guide shows you how to set up a capacitive soil moisture sensor with an Arduino. Like many Arduino sensors, soil moisture detectors only have three pins: GND, VIN, and data.

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 buttons are a great way to turn just about any (non-conductive) surface into a button, but people generally dislike the lack of tactile feedback. [KontinuumLab] apparently agreed ...

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.

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 ...

Capacitive reactance (Xc) increases as capacitance decreases and continues to grow to the point where virtually all the voltage drop occurs across this now open element of the circuit. Any remaining ...

News facts: New AS8579 capacitive sensor uses novel technique for fool-proof, hands-on detection design Enables sensing placement within the steering-wheel industry’s first completely reliable ...

To take full advantage of the Touch Board's capacitive capabilities, a bit of "distance code" can be uploaded to the board, making the touch sensor sensitive enough that you can interact with it ...
