This week is one of the important component of E textiles and its tough for many. I like electronics and after Fab academy I had good learning experience with various projects involving electronic production. I am curious to work on this. But as we dont have many components like conductive ink, thread, hook etc in India, so we procured few things before Fabricademy started and few in the middle. So we would have some limitation in this week. Lizastark, is one of the best presenters I have come across to explain electronics from basics and specially introducing novice like us to E textiles. Though it all looked simple to do but its not an easy week for me but the end I started to enjoy these.
This week's lecture introduced to an overview of the field of electronic textiles, examples in the field as well as materials and technical development. This weekI designed an Tilt sensor as Digital sensor and LDR with Vibration motor as Analog using Arduino UNO.

Warning Notes

Be very careful while you are soldering, firstly switch it off after use, secondly never use soldering above a certain level, varies to each machine but with ours we avoid going above 225 degree as it can damage components you are soldering.
