Master Thesis
My thesis (PDF) from 2012 is about developing a wearable sensor network called LumiNet2 under the supervision of René Bohne.
I also started documenting my experiments on the Wearable computing at i10 page in the tutorials section. I also helped organizing a workshop for fashion designers Smart Fashion Aachen.
I recently completed a collaboration with ITA to create a jacket with an 8x8 RGB LED display on the back.
FabLab
During my stay in the FabLab Aachen I learned many things including how to operate the PCB Milling Machine the Lasercutter and the Professional 3D Printer Dimension Elite. I also wrote an extensive tutorial for the Milling machine.
I am interested in all that is related to crafts and I also like tinkering with electronics so I participate at Dorkbot Aachen regularly. Sometimes I bring my wearable projects other times something completely different.
Fun projects:
- LED on nails
- Nail QR codes.
- QR code Stamp
- Laser cut silk screen stencil for fabrics.
- Fabric Connectors
- Greeting cards with Lasercuter
- Skirt with 8x8 green led matrix
- Fimo electronics
- Laser cut origami shapes.
