You can easily make paint from graphite or else the easier option will be to take out carbon from AA or AAA battery. Then mix some water and obtain the consistency like paint by stirring it properly, Then paint it on a surface whatever you want to make touch sensitive.
Connect this sensitive surface to A0 or any analog pin of arduino and upload the following code
#include <ADCTouch.h>
int ref0; //reference values to remove offset
void setup()
{
// No pins to setup, pins can still be used regularly, although it will affect readings
Serial.begin(9600);
ref0 = ADCTouch.read(A0, 500); //create reference values to
}
void loop()
{
int value0 = ADCTouch.read(A0); //no second parameter
value0 -= ref0; //remove offset
Serial.print(value0 > 40); //send (boolean) pressed or not pressed
Serial.print("\t"); //use if(value > threshold) to get the state of a button
Serial.print(value0); //send actual reading
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.println(value1);
delay(100);
}
Here if value0 will be greater than 40 it means that touch is detected.
you can use this code according to your need.
You can install this library from arduino library manager library.
Thank You
