The LA and Seoul-based designer's You Light Me Up is build from a model of her own hand, and takes the E.T. approach to the interface: just touch the conductive strip embedded on her outstretched pointer finger to turn the hand on or off.
The technology, in its prototype form, 17 is characterised by a small flexible polymeric conductive strip embedded into a pair of leggings.
His printing machine, called the Fab@Home, can already create the layers of plastic that make up the fish's hard body and fins, deposit the tiny strips of conductive silver and metal-polymer composite that serve as the fish's muscle-like actuators, and even compose its batteries with injections of zinc, manganese and potassium hydroxide.
Briefly, Drosophila were anesthetizes by exposing to triethylamine (FlyNap™; Caroline Biological, Burlington, NC, USA), and were placed on glass microscope slides with their heads and posterior abdomens touching two strips of conductive electrode gel.
A strip of conductive concrete running down the side of a building could also act as an unobtrusive lightning conductor.Such land-based applications, however, may just be the beginning of concrete's renaissance.
A strip of conductive silver paint bridges the metal semiconductor-metal junction with the AFmetal semiconductor-metalate is the metallic Au, and it plays also the role of the bottom electrode in the case of the Si substrate.
Do the same for the remaining strip of conductive fabric, making sure not to cross the lines of the other circuits.
The elastomeric or 'zebra' connector consists of alternating thin strips of layered electrically conductive and non-conductive materials.
The impedance measurements were performed using radio frequency (RF) techniques by gluing the sample with a conductive silver paint between two micro-strip lines with 50 Ω of characteristic impedance.
