Ohm’s Law Simulator
This is a great resource to understand the relationship among current, voltage, and resistance. Enjoy!

Experiment with thermochromic ink! 1) Create *at least* 5 swatches and document the following for each: > Pigment/Base Ratio > Type of base you are using (e.g. Binder, Paint, Base, Nali polish, etc) > Length of time to turn transparent (You do not need to measure exactly – estimate to give us an idea) >…
Open Circuit Amplified Speaker Pillow (w/tutorial) The Dodo Whisperer (from last semester)
Other resources: Fabric Speaker with ATtiny *Code used* since you can’t use the tone() library
Just in case you missed it in the slides :) High Low tech tutorial here.
SLIDES! Here is a link to the library you will need for today’s class: https://github.com/damellis/attiny/archive/master.zip
Create a lamp using the set of tools (materials and processes) we have used over the course of the semester. I want to see you push yourselves both conceptually and on your use of materials. The design can be simple, but I want to see real thought behind all of the decisions you make. Constraints:…
You can download here. CapSense Sketch: CapacitiveSensorSketch_LED Here is the code for this class. Here is the CapSenseLibrary. And finally, here is your assignment: 1) Make two capacitive sensors. Have one turn on an LED and one make some noise. 2) Come prepared to present your midterm concept. You should bring any inspiration, prototypes, drawings,…
More Resources: >> Ohm’s Law + KVL >> Fritzing (to build wiring diagrams and schematics) Here are some wiring diagrams we went over in class about buttons and pull down/up resistors. Here is a super helpful button tutorial from Arduino. And remember: PULL DOWN to Ground :: Button pressed = LED on HIGH PULL UP…
1) Create two variations of two sensors from the four we discussed (Pressure, Potentiometer, Bend/Flex, Stretch). You should have a total of 4 sensors. Think about surface area, distance, and contact as you construct them. Also: You do not have to embed the battery. Instead you may connect them with alligator clips. ;) 2) Document…
