Application Of New Fiber And Malleable Materials For Agile Development Of Augmented Instruments And Controllers
Adrian Freed · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) · 2008
The paper introduces new fiber and malleable materials,including piezoresistive fabric and conductive heat-shrinktubing, and shows techniques and examples of how they maybe used for rapid prototyping and agile development of musicalinstrument controllers. New implementations of well-knowndesigns are covered as well as enhancements of existingcontrollers. Finally, two new controllers are introduced that aremade possible by these recently available materials andconstruction techniques.
