Book Overview

Introducing students to the world of wearable technology.

Soft Circuits introduces students to the world of wearable technology. Using Modkit, an accessible DIY electronics toolkit, students learn to create e-textile cuffs, "electrici-tee" shirts, and solar-powered backpacks. Students also learn the importance of one component to the whole--how, for example, changing the structure of LED connections immediately affects the number of LEDs that light up.
