Thread to post updates to development and testing of giant keyboard user interface to display using Bare Conductive Touch Board and Electric Paint.0

Please post below any functionality/testing scenarios you can think of.

Viable Product Test Case
Using Touch Board confirm midi synth output can be received by Xscheduler via USB.
Map midi inputs from 12 sensors using Xscheduler log functionality.
Activate xlights sequences using event inputs from touch board.

Usable Product Test Case

Confirm whether FPP on BeagleBone Green can also recieve input directly.
Confirm FPP can activate effects from sensor input.
Test EMI to board using set of 12v pixels. Record distance factors and pixel brightness output factors.
Test EMI to capacitive keys and record factors.

Edit 17/12/20:
Confirmed: Using Velostat conductive plastic over the top of conductive sensor (electric paint product) replaces need for human or metal contact to close circuit. Step test conducted and confirmed to work with touch board.

Testing on hold til after 25th.
