The textiles' matter have been part of my life tour since back in Brazil where I used to work as fashion designer. Therefore, since this module had the goal to explore sensor, some of the textile’s possibilities was tested mainly as stretch sensor but also push and bending sensor. I’ve tested conductive and resistive textiles, conductive and resistive yarns as well as the knitting and crochet technique in order to develop the stretch sensor | ||
At first, those experimentations was made without final project propose until the point that it was possible to figure out the boundary of the e-textile as well as e-yarns. The result presented during the last meeting was the visualisation of the movements made by my wrist and elbow captured from the stretch textile sensor. With that idea have the intention to empower two skill: computing code and elaborate integrated circuits in textiles. | At first, those experimentations was made without final project propose until the point that it was possible to figure out the boundary of the e-textile as well as e-yarns.

'''Prototyping experiments''' | |||
Hands on! Banding sensor, push button and stretch sensor was made out of textile. | |||
The stretch sensor was the one that I most like, however, in order to make it, at first I had to set up a type of knitting machine as know as "french machine". | |||
