The Touch Board is a powerful prototyping tool which combines Arduino compatibility with robust capacitive touch, distance sensing, an MP3 Player, MIDI functionality and a LiPo battery charger. The Touch Board is perfect for any designer, engineer, artist, student or educator. Listen to the Touch Board’s pre-loaded audio guide to get you started right out of the box. No programming needed.

Create 12 touch or proximity sensors using Electric Paint or any other conductive material. Play your favourite MP3s, connect the Touch Board to Abelton Live as a MIDI controller or do anything else that you might do with an Arduino.

The Touch Board is part of the Arduino at Heart program which means you can program it and use it just like any Arduino. We’ve got robust and fully-featured libraries, example code and tons of tutorials so you can take advantage of all of its features.
