12. Skin Electronics#
Inspiration#
In the same way that the wearables industry is integrating fashion practices in their development, we envision new partnerships between the biotech/tech companies and skin professionals such as makeup artists, prosthesis experts and tattooists in order to embrace the idea of human-device symbiosis.
Project no.1#
The idea to make mask with LED. I decided to create a peacock face mask for party. With the help of Corel draw I designed this mask and printed it in the laser cutter. For creating this face mask I decided to make 2 cut piece and stich to both of them.
- Draw a circuit.
- Make a 2d design of mask on corel draw.
-
Save as DXF.
-
Import it On RD work for laser cutting with speed 100 and power 15.
- Mask is ready.
- Sew Led on mask.
- Upload Blink Led code to attiny
void setup() {
pinMode(PB2, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(PB2, HIGH);
delay(1000);
digitalWrite(PB2, LOW);
delay(1000);
}
- Sew attiny on back side.
- It’s Done.
It done very nice but I did mistake while soldering attiny through hole pins. So It doesn’t work now.

Tools:
- Soldering station
- Soldering iron
- Scissors
- Multimeter
- Needle

Components:
- LED strip
- Battery button cell
- Fabric
Process:
- Make a bioplastic.
I made bioplastic to us it as skin. I have documented all the receipe in assignment no.4.
- Spread it on plane surface.
- Let it dry.
-
Make a design on 2d software.
-
Import on Rd works
-
Start to laser cut the bioplastic.
- It’s ready with cutting and engraving.
