Control micro:bit behavior using a touch pad

Description

The touch:bit is a micro:bit add-on created by Pimoroni. It has six touch pads (labeled left, right, and a-d) that use capacitive touch to let you communicate with your micro:bit. You can use the touchpads to control behavior in your micro:bit or in another device using the radio communication functionality of the micro:bit.

The board slides onto the base of the micro:bit so it removes the difficulty of connecting to the right pins.
