Soft Circuits: Crafting e-Fashion with DIY Electronics
Kylie Peppler, Melissa Sommerfeld Gresalfi, Katie Salen Tekinbaş, Rafi Santo · 2014
Soft Circuits introduces students to the world of wearable technology. Using Modkit, an accessible DIY electronics toolkit, students learn to create e-textile cuffs, electrici-tee shirts, and solar-powered backpacks. Students also learn the importance of one component to the whole -- how, for example, changing the structure of LED connections immediately affects the number of LEDs that light up.
