Touch Board from Bare Conductive

Create interactive project with the Touch Board and electric paint

The Touch Board will help you to create interactives projects. It is ready to use out of the box.
See this présentation video available on YouTube.

Create sensors with the Touch Board’s 12 electrodes and trigger sounds through its MP3 player. Attach wire or electric paint to the Touch Board's electrodes and interact with your project. Even better, Touch Board can be used to create a MIDI piano, an interactive wall, interactive stairs, a proximity sensor, even a keyboard (HID Device)... depending on your need. One Touch Board, a million possibilities!

By using the cross‐platform Bar Conductive's plugin installer, you will be able to load code example with Arduino IDE. This feature will be very appreciated by Arduino's developers. With the Touch board you also have an Arduino's compatible board with onboard tactile & multimedia capabilities.

The Touch Board can be used with protoshields, crocodile clips, copper tape, solder, e‐textiles and with Electric Paint to design your own sensors.

Not sure where to get started? Take a look at the Touch Board Starter Kit. It comes with all the materials and ideas you need to get making today!

Touch board and arduino world

As mentionned, the Touch Board is already preprogrammed but you can use Arduino IDE to push your own sketch that extend the possibilities over the Midi, MP3 and touch features. Indeed, the Touch Board uses an Atmega 32U4 as regular Arduinos.

The Touch board also offers an Arduino R3 connector with some free pin and customisations possibilities for some other pins already used. See the Touch Board Shield Guide on Bare Conductive.

As detailled in the Touch Board shield Guide, it can also been used with shields.
