Fabric Pressure Sensor Gloves (2013)
yellow cables = fabric pressure sensors
Textile pressure sensor is made up of:
– Eeonyx Eeontex (LR SLPA MM-1-54) >> http://eeonyx.com/
– 1mm thick neoprene with fabric fused to either side from Foam Order >> http://www.foamorder.com/
– 117/17 2ply silverized nylon conductive thread from Shieldex >> http://www.plugandwear.com/default.asp?mod=product&cat_id=105&product_id=137
– flexible wire from Conrad >> http://www.kobakant.at/DIY/?p=514
