CircuitPython Touch

There's four capacitive touch pads you can use to detect

human touch. They have big pads you can use to attach

alligator/croc clips

Whether you use a Circuit Playground Crickit or Feather

Crickit, the touch pads are available.

The four capacitive touch pads on the Crickit HAT for

Raspberry pi are conveniently on the edge and vave

nice holes for clipping alligator clips onto.

You can read the value of the captouch pads from crickit.touch_#.value This will return True (if touched) or False (if

not). This is the simplest/easiest way to detect touch, but it has a catch!
