This project is a continuation and reimagining of my former colleague’s (metaterra) “Whisker Sensory Extension Wearable”. The purpose of this project was to focus on the creation of novel, computationally-enriched “sensory extensions” that allow for augmented-sensing of the natural world. My major effort with this project was devoted to the fabrication and implementation of sensory […]

For a class assignment, I needed to make something fabric-based which took an Arduino, some programming, and at least two inputs and outputs. After sketching a few different ideas, I hit on this one: an electromagnetic glove for MagnetoGirl. It sprang to life for me, because magnetism is an invisible force which can seem magical.

The LASER Maze was our Processing and Arduino powered garage haunted house for 2011. A monitor sits outside of the garage, displaying “PRESS START.” After the button is pressed, an intro video plays that instructs you to dodge the lasers and get your candy in the back of the garage. Whenever you break a laser

A bracelet decorated with six conductive fabric petals and a thread of beads with a metal bead at the end, makes for a simple six point tilt detection. It is also designed so that the metal bead will make contact with two petals if it lies in between. and then of course it will make

To connect a CT sensor to an Arduino, you need to adjust the CT sensor’s output signal to match the Arduino’s analog input requirements: a positive voltage ranging from 0V to the ADC reference voltage. Note: This page shows an example of an Arduino board running at 5 V and an EmonTx running at 3.3

This Color Detector utilizes an Arduino Uno R3 and TCS3200 color sensor module. Color identification and detection can be beneficial for food-processing units, color printer applications, paint-mixing applications, and other industrial applications such as robotics. This project is designed to identify basic colors (red, green, and blue) that are present in LEDs in a single

Has this ever happened to you? You wake up in the morning and realize that you’re terribly late for work/class/your weekly pedicure/whatever. You throw on a t-shirt and flip flops, sprint around your warm, heated house grabbing your belongings, and race out the door…where you suddenly find yourself surrounded by a cold, biting wind encompassing

Introduction Electrodes on the skin are used to detect muscle (EMG), brain (EEG), and heart (ECG/EKG) functions. These electrophysiological measures are commonly utilized for clinical use, research investigations, and even by enthusiasts such as those intrigued by brain computer interfaces. Numerous commercial systems are categorized as “medical grade”, indicating that they come at a high
