Touchscreen new interaction

Hello,

For an interaction I designed, I going to use Arduino for the first time. The interaction is setting the amount by sliding your finger up or down on some sort of a pad (so on a (invisible) scale), following by pressing it with your finger so it activates the actuator.

Does anyone know what sensor I can use for this? I hope this doesn't have to be too complicated.

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like what you are looking for, they even have examples and tutorials on how to use it.

Can you tell us your electronics, programming, Arduino, hardware experience?
