Ilya Vidrin, Peter Martel, Jessie Stegall, Eugene ZelenyMATERIALS + METHODS
Voxel8 3D printer, Polyurethane, elastic strap, pressure sensorsIlya Vidrin and Partnering Lab is using wearable tech to share the experience of partner dancing with audience members during performances.
When I joined this project, Partnering Lab was using a pressure sensor attached to a bike glove to capture the subtle hand pressure that helps partners to communicate. I reimagined the glove using technology from Voxel8, a Somerville-based 3D printing company. Voxel8 has been focused on combining 3D printed polyurethane and knit textiles to create varying stiffness for knit shoe uppers. I proposed an alternative: pressure sensors sandwiched between two layers of polyurethane which would become a textile by itself.
