A LOT of work has gone into the touchboard. From Thursday to Sunday I put in approximately 35 hours. The tasks that got done were: routing/drilling/filing/sanding/varnishing the padauk, re-wiring and heat-shrinking most of the sensor components, redesigning the circuit to accommodate more i/o than the Ardiuno has via a two 4051 multiplexer ICs, redesigning the Arduino firmware, and modifying the Max/MSP patch that receives the serial data from the Arduino. It was a weekend full of sawdust, solder, code, music, and beer. My favorite things :)
