Activities
- E-textiles Introduction
The lecture introduces the participants to e-textile hands-on activities, giving them an overview about materials, electronics and programming.
- Hands-on: Crafting Soft Sensors
Participants will learn how to design and craft their own soft circuits and sensors, experimenting with conductive fabrics, threads and electronics.
- Hands-on: Making Sense of Sensors
In the making sense of sensors workshop, participants will finally learn how to control, program and embed their soft circuits into interactive garments and wearables.
