ForumsDIY ← turn an FSR (x15) touch grid into an 8x8 matrix

my limited electronics/coding chops are restricting my ability to realise a robust and engaging touch interface (designed for disabled musicians) - my 5x3 grid of DIY FSRs is working fine; can I use a similar design, hijack Randy Jones' excellent multitouch prototype concept (ie an 8x8 matrix) using the same/similar materials and code? Details of the question can be found here:

Thanks

You can certainly draw inspiration from the concept, but I doubt that you can achieve the same technical results. Randy's prototype works with capacitive sensors, but your FSR grid is made of Force-Sensing Resistors. At a higher level, you can probably get similar results, but the materials are already different. Some of the higher level code might be universally applicable, but the lower levels of the design will not translate directly.
