// Board Setup
// D6: Grove TTP223 Touch Sensor
// D2: Grove LED Red

// Usage
// Touch the touch sensor, the LED gets turn on!

// Load TTP223 touch sensor module
var sensorModule = require('jsupm_ttp223');

// Load Grove module
var groveSensor = require('jsupm_grove');

// Create the TTP223 touch sensor object using GPIO pin 6
var touch = new sensorModule.TTP223(6);

// Create the Grove LED object using GPIO pin 2
var led = new groveSensor.GroveLed(2);

// Check whether or not a finger is near the touch sensor and
// print accordingly, waiting one second between readings
function readSensorValue() {
    if ( touch.isPressed() ) {
        //console.log(touch.name() + " is pressed");
        led.on();
    } else {
        //console.log(touch.name() + " is not pressed");
        led.off();
    }
