do you know which make/models?  do they have the ICs on a thin-film
circuit already?  if not... you're in for... a lot of cat-on-hot-nails
dancing [i.e. if they're "bare" capacitive panels with say 10
horizontal lines and 15 vertical ones and no IC].

 i _was_ going to do that with an STM32F (say) - one of the big ones:
do the timings and set up an RC circuit manually then scan them from
software.  after realising quite how small the capacitance actually is
on these panels, i am *really* glad i didn't go that route.  FT,
Goodix and Atmel have some hellishly-complex algorithms in the
firmware of those ICs...
