lilypad arduino - a small introduction
DESCRIPTION
My talk from BarCampBrighton3: a small introduction to LilyPad Arduino and some ways of making fabric leads, switches and sensors. You can use the Lilypad Arduino to bring interactivity to clothes, bags, and other wearables. Great fun for crafters who sew, knit or quilt and want to try something new, but also for people with an electronics/programming background who would like to branch out into 'softer' techniques.TRANSCRIPT
