- | **SOFTWARE: **based on the scheme provided by Wemake Milano, we fabricated a piezoresistive analog sensor. The pressure sensor was built with **neoprene**, **Velostat**, **conductive threads** and **copper conductive fabric**. | + | **SOFTWARE: ****Rhinoceros 3D** is a commercial 3D computer graphics and computer aided design (CAD). **Grasshopper **is an open source visual programming language that runs with Rhinoceros 3D. Grasshopper builds generative geometry by dragging components onto a canvas; data is passed from component to component via connections which connect an output with an input. Grasshoper has sevral plugs-in. |
- | **ISSUES: **I sewed a small piece of conductive fabric to the conductive thread to enlarge the surface where to attach the other components. However I could have simply covered the surface with several stitches to obtain a neater result. ISSUES non proprietario | + | **ISSUES: **Rhinoceros is a commercial software and we therefore used the 30 days trial version. Besides, the Mac version of Grasshoper is not reliable and a PC was necessary for this lesson. |
**NOTES**: only Neoprene without PVC can be laser cut. As I was not sure about the composition of the neoprene I used, I cut it with scissors and the shape was not extremely precise. | **NOTES**: only Neoprene without PVC can be laser cut.
