# Event Details

- **Event Name**: DIY Soft Sensors: Capacitive touch sensing for textile arts
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 29 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Wed, 29 Apr, 2026 at 09:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Learn how to turn your own fabric into a touch sensor you can use to control electronic components of costumes and textile art!About this EventHave you ever wanted to include controllable electronic components in your costumes, knitting or other textile projects? Have you ever wanted to add a textile element to your microcontroller project? Add capacitive touch sensing to your toolbox! In this class you'll learn:how make your own conductive polymer as a dye bathhow to turn your electro-reactive textile into a sensor that can detect your touchhow to connect that textile sensor to a microcontrollerhow to use that sensor to produce different effects like turning electronic components on and off, creating effects over time, and even sense proximity beyond direct touch.No electronics, programming, or textiles experience is required for this class at all! We'll walk you through everything you need to know to create your textile sensor, wire it up, and program an Arduino-compatible microcontroller to create lighting effects on addressable LEDs.All materials are included in the class, but you will need to bring your own laptop, and can optionally bring your absorbant textile swatch to dye (8" x 8" for fabrics, a small amount of yarn, a piece of natural sponge, etc.). Natural fibers typically take the process the best.This class will be taught by Resistor members Kari Love and Katie Mills. .There are 2 spots reserved for students who cannot access the class at the full price, so please make use of one of these need-based tickets if that is your situation.As with all NYC Resistor events, this class is 18+ and governed by our Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct, as well as accessibility information, can be found at www.nycresistor.com/participate/. Please note that refunds must be requested 72 hours in advance. If you have any questions, please email classes@nycresistor.com.
