Yet another capacitive touch sensor using ADC on a microcontroller, in particular the STM32 family of Cortex-M series ARM processors.
The project aim is to create a library that can be integrated in a Ell-i platform project.
Ell-touch has a small sample program that outputs a detected touch status on a single digital IO pin output.
As of now, 2013-5-20, I'm just learning to program in C and the whole thing starts up as the sample program that eventually will emit its main functionality as a library, resting itself on a to-be Ell-i ADC library.
Also as of 2013-5-20 the Ell-touch library and its sample program is using a shamelessly copied FreeBSD licence. I as the copyright owner hold the option of choosing another licence for later versions.
