Rapid Prototyping, using Foamboard for wearable technology
I wanted to start our Interaction Design sessions this year with a high-energy session. More than that, I wanted to encourage students to feel confident to make rapid prototypes so they continued throughout the year. Sometimes, students don’t have the confidence...
UV nail resin for strength in wearables
Nail resin can keep your connections strong! Making wearable projects are super fun and challenging. This is a super quick post to document that typically I use nail varnish to cover my sewing knots. This is a good solution but for some of my joins with thin (very...
Create your own Social Distancing Hat, with extras…
In this tutorial, for a distance sensor hat, I’ll be using an ultrasonic sensor to measure the distance of others approaching. This will trigger a neopixel ring with colours, a buzzer for sound, and a vibration sensor to get some haptic feedback. This tutorial...
Lockdown Arduino. How to Create a Chain Reaction across the internet.
Chain Reaction was an idea for a project by Mil Stricevic at The Glasgow School of Art. Over the course of the week we provided tutorials and ran the week-long teaching Arduino event for the Product Design students. The Writeup Previously, this would be a week-long...Tinker Tailor
When I started making wearable electronics - it was very difficult to find unusual parts, small components, fabrics, conductive materials, all in one place. I decided to create Tinker Tailor to address this for makers!
www.TinkerTailor.tech supplies the difficult-to-get parts for the Wearable Electronics community. My aim is to provide you with everything you need to make wearable technology projects, for beginners and experienced makers too.
