Touch Board

The Bare Conductive touch board lets you add interactivity to just about any medium when combined with circuitry and the Bare Conductive Electric Paint. One tool can open a whole host of possibilities such as making a MIDI piano, interactive wall, proximity sensor, or other mixed human/electronic interfaces. It can trigger sounds through its MP3 player and is completely programmable through the Arduino IDE!
