Detect touch
I need to substitute a mechanical trigger used inside a suit case handler (metal handler). The trigger (coil and switch) is used to detect someone is carrying the suit case. The idea is to remove the mechanical items and have something based on touch only. I was thinking about using the metallic handle as a capacitive sensor and somehow process the signal. However I need to know if more than on person are handling it at the same time. Any tip?
Thanks in advance.
