For this week assignment I was experimenting with materials, trying to come up with my own resistor design. squishing sensor The first experiment was done with a balloon filled with salty water. According to the equation of resistivity in materials, I can change the geometry of an object and get a change in the resistivity […]
Are you new to yoga? If so, do you ever wonder if you are actually doing the poses right? Well to help guide you a bit better, I have prototyped a yogamat that contains sensors to help tell you whether or not your weight is balanced. In order to make this, I first started by […]
I used LEDs as rhinestones to make mittens sparkle in response to hand motions. Using velostat, I made a resistive sensor that senses how bent or flexed the wrist is. Incorporating the sensor into the natural bending motion of the wrist, more LEDs light up the more the wearer moves the wrist, capturing and amplifying […]
