Looking back at the development of my eTextile breadboards.    

  I had finished sewing an Atmel ATtiny45 into a paper breadboard when I realized that I hadn’t programed the micro controller! Luckily I was able to attach alligator clips to the ATtiny45 pins and program the chip with a fade program via an Arduino Uno.    

  These three eTextile circuits use the same hardware to create a light sensing circuit.   The first two example uses seed beads to insulate the conductive thread and add an aesthetic twist to standard electronic hardware.     While the final circuit uses electrical tape, conductive paint, conductive thread, conductive tape, and a lot of ingenuity to connect the […]
