GLOVE DESIGN: In considering the design of the contact points, I did a series of tests with ink and disposable gloves to map out where fingers and thumbs get touch most frequently.
I decided on copper mesh as the conductive material for the fingertips.
A finer mesh ended up being the better choice both aesthetically & functionally.
Final gloves were sewn by hand.
I decided that a hand-operated control panel would be the other input device (as opposed to foot switches, etc.).
