SnapToTrace Final Presentation and Feedback




Final Presentation located here.


The feedback I received from Melanie focused mainly on developing the board as an interface to systems learning in realms outside of computation. This was fantastic feedback, especially since an early concept had framed it in this way. Katherine’s feedback was continued simplification of the components by taking them off the board. This is definitely the goal of the summer moving this project into potential thesis territory, along with some logic-based components.

Stroke Sensor


How it works:
This stroke sensor uses conductive and resistive thread to complete the circuit and light up the LEDs (“threaded” in parallel).


Materials:

Conductive thread

Resistive thread

Conductive fabric

Fabric

Thread

Needle

Scissors

Pliers

Exacto knife

3V battery
