Also checkout their touch sensor boards at the bottom of: Force Sensors / Pressure / Touch Sensors - Trossen Robotics These are capacitive touch sensors, meaning you can apply copper foil to the inside surface of wherever you want to sense someones touch & connect/wire it to the correct spot on one of these boards, & it'll sense a humans touch right through the plastic.

Yeah that was my suggestion to Josh but I did a stupid thing and loaded Windows8 before testing it. I bought these little kits that are smaller than your fingernail, then made one but assumed that Windows 8 wouldnt screw up my bluetooth. mad

sorry dude , win 8 works fine on my tablet , but im not the one who installed it either ;/ I really really like the idea of the robot sensing when you touch it, that moves it from toy to really interactive!

I liked the though of touching the back of its arm and having it flinch or touch its head and it reacts like a cat. Thats not including funny sound clips like...."DONT TOUCH ME THERE!":D
