Pic Code for Go-Go Gloves

Glove Code in Pic Basic Pro

Final Project

GLOVE DESIGN: In considering the design of the contact points, I did a series of tests with ink and disposable gloves to map out where fingers and thumbs get touch most frequently.

I decided on copper mesh as the conductive material for the fingertips.

A finer mesh ended up being the better . . . → Read More: Final Project

This project has officially been named:

RF progress:

Transmitters send information only when it changes. The information is sent several times. The result: a clear transmission is made MOST of the time. ONCE in a while the values get stuck and you have to fiddle with the switches to unstick them. This is very . . . → Read More: Final Project

Final Project: Continuing with RF

Step 1: Sending one piece of information from transmitter to reciever. Step 2: Sending multiple pieces of information from transmitter to receiver. Step 3: Sending multiple pieces of information from multiple transmitters to one receiver.

I am currently in the midst of Step 2. I have been able to send 5 pieces of data and . . . → Read More: Final Project: Continuing with RF

Final Project

New developments: I will be doing this project as my ICM final in addition to PComp. My ultimate goal is to network the project so that the two users can operate their puppets from different locations.

Possible glove tip / conductive material: copper mesh, conductive rubber, conductive thread (embroidery?), spiral of copper wire Should there . . . → Read More: Final Project

SETUP:

BUILDING THE GLOVE:

RF: If I want to have four gloves operating at the same time, does that mean that I have to have four sets of transmitters/receivers? Would they all have to operate at different frequencies? Or can multiple transmitters send to one receiver?

I only need a one-way transmission. Four pieces . . . → Read More: Final Project

Final Project Ideas

GLOVE/PUPPETS:

I have a vision of continuing with the glove that I made at the beginning of the semester. I’ve been really hesitant about the whole glove thing because it so simple and so popular right now. But of all the ideas I’ve come up with, this is the one that keeps popping back up . . . → Read More: Final Project Ideas
