CIRCUIT TOUCH
The Circuit Touch function can turn
any object that conducts electricity
into a touch interface. The arm of the
Quirkbot has pads on each side with
one hole each. The front pad (inner
hole) is the sensor , and the back pad
(outer hole) is ground. When a Sensor
is connected to Ground, it triggers.

The easiest way to make a trigger is to
simply pinch the Quirkbot's arm. Since
your body conducts electricity, you
complete the circuit and trigger the
sensor. You can use the included
alligator cables to extend the touch
function in many ways.
