Capacitive sense buttons and pads are awesome, but many of the available systems are either propitiatory or require a dedicated IC. Toumas decided to code his own based on a closed source Atmel example where a single ADC pin is used for capacitive sensing. He reverse engineered it, and documented his results: I’ve been thinking […]

A new generation of tactile surfaces with relief effects
Marius tipped us to a new generation of tactile surfaces with relief effects: Swiss researchers have invented a new generation of tactile surfaces with relief effects – users can feel actual raised keys under their fingers. This technology could have many applications, particularly in improving access to electronic media for the visually impaired. Via the […]
