Hi,
I recently built and installed a Teensy that senses a hand on an exhibit. During initial testing and setup the values returned by TouchRead() increased when a hand was present, but the exhibit stopped working suddenly.
Yesterday I went to have a look and found that the values are now decreasing! The hand is isolated from the face panel and the panel is earthed - to avoid static shocks. Nothing changed electrically so I am quite flummoxed as to the reason behind this reversal.
Could anyone give some insight into my observations and perhaps a way to avoid this?
Kind regards,
Chris
