Inspiration

the theremin

What it does

senses the position of the hands

How I built it

a tee shirt with three capacitance plates per hand angled in different planes to give a 3 point location to project capacitance for each hand. and 4 control buttons all touch sensitive

Challenges I ran into

connecting through fabric, trying to maintain connections between hard controllers and flexible fabric

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

building this prototype type in the limited time frame

What I learned

conductive ink takes a long time to dry, the flexibility of the bare conduct

What's next for polyphonic theremin teeshirt

to work on the code to and introduce a physical control to adjust the distance and sensitivity of sensing the hands develop the code so it can be calibrated as a controller giving a position of each hand instead of just sensing
