The Projects:
About Electric Paint:
Electric paint is a unique platform for discovering, playing with, reparing, and designing with, electronics. It can be used as both a liquid wire, and as a conductive adhesive. The handy 10ml tube allows you to draw circuits and attach small components to your projects, while the 50ml jar is great for painting or screen-printing graphical sensors. Electric Paint is nontoxic, solvent-free, and water-soluble.
About the Touch Board:
The Touch Board is a tool that allows you to connect almost any surface, object, or space to the digital world. You can transform any of the board's 12 electrodes into sensors to trigger MP3 tracks or MIDI notes. The board works with the Arduino IDE platform, which means you can upload or modify code, and use digital and analog pins as you would on an Arduino board.
