9. Wearables

Research

I hope to connect well and successfully complete the research and assignments! I’ve arranged conductive thread for the sewing machine.

Research: What is the definition of "wearables"? The lecture was fascinating! So many trials have already been done.

References & Inspiration

The three local classes and hands-on experiences I took in Spain:

Adrián’s XION Lecture

Although it was available online, I learned about XION directly from Adrián during my stay in León a week before the lecture.

Dani’s Class

Coding with Arduino

I had a LilyPad. During the class, there was a part where we switched from ONBOARD to STRIP, and at first, I didn’t quite get the hang of it! My version was outdated, and I kept getting errors while coding. After about seven attempts, I finally got it! Dani asked me, "You’ve used it before, right?" But honestly, during WEEK05 in León, Adrián and Nuria helped me, so I couldn’t do it on my own. Here, I learned everything from scratch, and I’ll share what I learned with my FabLab members when I return (though they probably already know!).
