You can buy small modules with capacitive touch detection ICs ... but [Alain Mauer] wanted was to bring touch control to a simple LED strip. Not to be set deterred, he’s put together a ...

Using multi-material 3D printing and computational tools, this work demonstrates an approach to generate and fabricate conductive traces within objects to support capacitive touch sensing. Touching ...

The current generation of USB-powered soldering irons have a lot going for them, chief among them being portability and automatic start and stop. But an iron that turns off in the middle of ...
