Wearables¶

1. Objective¶

What do we need to do this week? create 3 swatches at least 1. Create two actuator or output swatches designed for the body. Test them with the board of your choice. 2. Create one swatch using a board of your choice with one input and one output of your choice. a. It should be intentionally designed to be worn on the

State Changes | Actuators | we can make the 3 of them or choose from - Visual - Sound - Motion

Visual - Thermochromic Ink/powder - NeoPixel: we don't work with LED, it's a RGB lights, it comes like a sheet or a spool. make sure it's 5 vaults Sound - Fiber optics - EL wire, a very flixable light, like noodles - light sensor

Sound Textile speakers - sound sensor | mic for the input, speaker for the output

Motion - Shape memory Alloys - Flip Dots - Vibe motors + Haptics Distance sensor servo motor

Group wotk at the lab¶

we will start by creating a soft speaker.

6. Weekly reflection & critical thinking¶

• What did I learn? What did I personally find interesting or surprised me?
• What would I do differently? If something "failed" do I know how else to tackle it now?"
• How does this connect to my final project or my learning trajectory?
• What are implications and possible applications, think also from the ethical or environmental aspect, how it could connect to your practice and project?
