Touch Sensor

A touch sensor is a switch activated by touch that is used in smart lamps, wall switches, and public terminals. It works by connecting to an Arduino board, with the touch sensor pin reading input and the Arduino printing to the serial monitor when the sensor is touched, providing an easy way to detect touch.
