Accomplishments: Everything is almost done! I sewed the whole garment together, got the electronics set up and started sewing on the EL wire. Outstanding Issues: Buying a battery that is powerful enough. Plan for next week: I will be finishing sewing the EL wire onto the dress and hemming it. […]
Accomplishments: We did not figure out how to make the code for the FHT work but I wrote a simpler code that works pretty well using raw data from the electret microphone. I have been working on putting the skirt together this week. I cut all of the fabric […]
This past week, I completed the sewing of all velcro onto the band, which now makes secure closure and hiding of the board possible. I also sewed on the LEDs. This week, I just have to finish my last few stitches and attach the heart rate monitor either by soldering […]
Pictures: First picture is the best toner transfer I’ve been able to pull off so far. Spent most of the week trying to just get a resist going. You can still tell there are some breaks, but those should be fixable with a really fine sharpie. I’ve been experimenting with […]
