Pi Cap
Jude Pullen (Design Modelling) and James Bentley (Hellicar and Lewis) were given the opportunity to play with the Pi Cap in a recent workshop held at Machines Room in East London. With an open brief to create a meaningful project using the Pi Cap and Raspberry Pi, they decided to use the capacitive sensors on the Pi Cap to focus on the importance of human touch.
What they created was a wrist wearable that allows you to determine whether your handshakes or hugs are meeting your minimum daily quota of human touch.
Watch the video to hear James explain their initial concept, and to see their touch sensitive wearable in action.
