Looking for a great way to detect when someone touches thread, or if 4 people touch thread etc.
I'm not looking for a hand count, but I'm going to try to translate it into MIDI for use in a project.
Am I looking for a form of capacitive sensor?

something like this: ebay.co.uk/itm/…– Andrew LazarusJun 29, 2019 at 8:03

No, unless you use wire. Or, maybe, conductive thread. Mentioning MIDI implies you want to make music. Indicate if this is so - as I'm thinking there are much more reliable alternative that you could use.– st2000Jun 29, 2019 at 20:43

The Arduino Lilypad boards might be the right place to start learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sewing-with-conductive-thread– Mikael PatelJun 30, 2019 at 16:14

I have conductive thread, but it might be a case of finding a nicer looking thread with conductivity, this thread is very thin, not appealing to touch at all– Andrew LazarusJun 30, 2019 at 16:21
