[Marcus] has written up his experiences using the AD7746 capacitance sensor. He used the SparkFun breakout board in conjunction with an Arduino. The available Arduino code wasn't that great so he rewrote it to be easier to understand. The AD7746 is an I2C device that can be continuously read, but this doesn't mesh well with the Wiring libraries. Additionally, the calibration routine from the data … [Read more...]
