Adafruit Capacitive Touch HAT for Raspberry Pi - Mini Kit - MPR121

This touch-able add on HAT for Raspberry Pi has 12 capacitive touch sensors. Capacitive touch sensing works by detecting when a person (or animal) has touched one of the sensor electrodes. Capacitive touch sensing used for stuff like touch-reactive tablets and phones. This HAT allows you to create electronics that can react to human touch, with up to 12 individual sensors.

The HAT has 12 'figure 8' holes in it that can be gripped onto with alligator clip cables. Attach one side of the clip to the HAT and the other side to something electrically conductive (like metal) or full of water (like vegetables or fruit!) Then start up our handy Python library code to detect when the object is touched. That's pretty much it, very easy! For advanced users, you can also solder to a pad to make a slimmer & more permanent connection.

Works with any Raspberry Pi that has a 2x20 connector.

Each order comes with a Capacitive Touch HAT and a 2x20 socket header.

Note

You'll need to do some light through-hole soldering to attach the headers onto the HAT circuit board,

This kit does not come with Raspberry Pi, alligator clips, speaker
