Rethinking haptic experience of sensors already created on Space Shell 1. After having programmed the soundboard and having tested the proto-sensors with the actual sound I wanted to better connect the visual and haptic experience with the sound.

The capacitivesensor.h library for the Arduino code did not work as well as expected. After some research I found the ADCtouch.h library which runs really well if you want to use a capacitive sensor as a toggle.

After a long coding session me and my helping hand made the capacitive sensor "working". With working I mean, that it worked this day under these precise conditions. Even though the values showed big differences when my friend touched the sensor and when I touched it. Just because of our different capacities. I can just hope that people in the exhibition also have about the same capacity and the sensor works with everyone ;)

Any conductive material can be used as a capacitive sensor. Instead of using ready-made capacitive sensor shields and soldering the conductive material to it, one can use a pre-coded capacitive sensor library for arduino. This entry shows experiments and the producstion of final sensors.
