Building interactive systems using unconventional electronics

Published:22 January 2010Publication History

ABSTRACT

Many interactive systems use "conventional" silicon- based sensors and electronics that limit their functionality and scalability. Organic, amorphous inorganic, and other "unconventional" electronics are ideal for applications that require mechanical flexibility or large-area sensing. In this studio participants will use simple control electronics and a range of unconventional materials to design and build a custom interactive system that combines organic light-emitting diodes and piezoelectric pressure sensors.
