Making A Capacitive Proximity Sensor With Electric Paint

[@adriananunes1015]

where is the page that contains the code??

[@yaseenkhan4575]

What is the value of resistor?

[@yagneshpatel5934]

If I use pcb as conducting plate and paint it than can I use it as moisture sensor in soil..? Will this same circuit u shown works..?

[@bareconductive0]

Hello, if you want sense moisture in soil, we'd recommend a moisture sensor!

[@vlooop2179]

Question .. do this sensor requiers electricity from ardruno board or is it self generating and giving electricity to board?

[@bareconductive0]

Hello! They receive electricity from the board!

[@vlooop2179]

@@bareconductive0 btw did you measure hoe much voltage this thing generates in idle position.. I mean without board.. I've seen a ppl using these sensors to generate electricity

[@bareconductive0]

@@vlooop2179 I'm not sure what you mean by "thing". The paper sensor doesn't generate voltage, but the Arduino has an output voltage of 5VDC.

Is it possible to do the same process using raspberry and resistors only? Or it is imposible without a hat or some module

[@bareconductive0]

You should be able to as it just using the digital pins of the Arduino!

Arduino: 1.8.19 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino Uno" capacitive_sensor:38:10: fatal error: CapacitiveSensor.h: No such file or directory #include ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. exit status 1 CapacitiveSensor.h: No such file or directory This report would have more information with "Show verbose output during compilation" option enabled in File -> Preferences. What to do??

[@zohaibshamim472]

can you please tell me how to connect wires and resistor in audrunio Uno board as i am making a capactive water level measurement sensor

Hello! This is an archived project, but can you drop us an email at [e-mail]?

[@damirmemic9054]

Hi. Can you make the same circuit using STM32? And how would you write the code for it?

[@bareconductive0]

Hello! Having a quick look at it, it should be possible, you can find the library here: playground.arduino.cc/Main/CapacitiveSensor/

[@ThomasHaberkorn]

cool application! It would be nice to know how it works (working principle)

[@bareconductive0]

Hey Thomas, thanks! You can find more details on how it works on our website: www.bareconductive.com Thanks

[@mollyblack1355]

where is the tutorial that shows how to convert the data to sound? couldn't find it from searching

[@bareconductive0]

Hello! This is an archived project, but instead, we have this Touch Board now: www.bareconductive.com/shop/touch-board/

[@tomii010]

Can it work like a midi signal?

[@bareconductive0]

Indeed it can, have a look here: www.bareconductive.com/make/midi-interface/

[@elmou2734]

what is the role of the resistence ?

[@bareconductive0]

Hello! The resistance of the paint is 55Ohm/Square.

[@joseedilbertogaunazarate5331]

no encuentro la pagina de sensor conductivo?

[@bareconductive0]

+JOSE EDILBERTO GAUNA ZARATE Hello, you can see examples made with our Touch Board here: www.bareconductive.com/shop/touch-board/ Or a tutorial for this video is here: www.bareconductive.com/make/building-a-capacitive-proximity-sensor-using-electric-paint/

[@cybrhckr]

does it need to be huge

[@bareconductive0]

No it doesn't, you can also paint small ones!

[@cybrhckr]

@@bareconductive0 thanks it was confusing because all the DIY capacitive sensors I watched made it enormous.

[@bareconductive0]

@@cybrhckr It's easier to follow along when the sensors are larger!

[@yehudaavitan5010]

How can this be made without an arduino?

[@bareconductive0]

What do you want to use instead?

[@yehudaavitan5010]

@@bareconductive0 Just basic analog components.

try to upload tutorials with a minimum of quality at last
