We had some chats with Mika (Tutor of E-Textiles and Wearables 1) and she sent me some inspiring ideas. see http://www.kobakant.at/DIY/?p=6927 On basis on her design I sketched my first sole with a sensor out of textiles which works as a potentiometer triggered by pressure. text/html 2018-04-25T12:14:21+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/akhibi.sophie/construction_phase_ll?rev=1524658461&do=diff Construction Phase II On the January, 25th we had a local prototype presentation. In a feedback round we identified two major problems regarding my first prototype of the insole * inconstant values * no reliable values (10 kg close to the wires brought different values than 10 kg far away from the point of measurement) text/html 2017-10-09T08:39:00+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/akhibi.sophie/first_ideas_for_the_final_project?rev=1507538340&do=diff First Ideas for the final project: * Textile which provides/includes heat to prevent back pains and which you can use several times * integrating life monitoring devices in daily textiles * I know a patient who has lost his foot and it would be a great pleasure for me to find solutions for him to make life for him a bit easier.

I presented my idea in the manufacturer specialized on products in the field of orthopedics, rehabilitation, and care. First of all they liked my idea and said that there is a potential demand on the market for my idea.

But as were are a group with limited experiences when it comes to modeling and operating machines we decided to do a FabLab workshop to become more familiar with our new working environment. We started at 10 in the morning and got an introduction in 3D Scanning which was also the first step for our second assignment. text/html 2018-03-18T11:51:39+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/akhibi.sophie/week_3_kw41?rev=1521373899&do=diff Circular Open Source Fashion 10.10.2017 l Global meeting Zoe Romano introduce us into the systems behind fashion and the textile industry.

Our first exercise was to create a simple circuit withe an opening blink LED. We repeated some basics which I vaguely remembered from physics class. First we measured the resistance of different fabrics because the degree of resistance has an impact of the energy flow.

Soft-robotics are based in Bio-inspired design or biomimicry and have applications in wearables, rehabilitation prosthetics, surgical robots, rescuing and others. We experimented on the fabrication of soft actuators and grippers. text/html 2018-03-02T18:43:31+00:00 http://wiki.textile-academy.org/fabricademy2017/students/akhibi.sophie/week_12_l_skin_electronics?rev=1520016211&do=diff Week 12 l Skin electronics 12.12.2017 l Global Meeting Global Instructor: Katja Vega This week dealt with the idea of human-device symbiosis in the field of make-up, prosthesis and tattoos. 13.12.2017 l FabLab Session We had a tutorial on how to make stencils for circuits with Adobe Illustrator and how to cut them in the vinyl cutter. We did some experiments with conductive ink on our skin.
