An e-textile prototype board developed by Alexandra Charland, a听Creative Technology & Design and computer science double-major, was featured on Hackaday, a popular hardware hacking website.
After completing听Arielle Dispenza's听summer Object class, Charland听worked with ATLAS PhD Student Chris Hill to听develop the prototype in the post, which is based on听ThreadBoard,听a magnetic breadboard for embedded computing that allows for the rapid prototyping of e-textile circuits. Charland's modification听includes听reusable tie points designed to work with an adhesive substrate,听such as felt.听
ThreadBoard听was developed in CU 麻豆影院's听听and at the听ATLAS Institute. It听is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Award听.听听
