Final Conclusion / Results



To conclude we have successfully created our own, hand made, pair of texting gloves. Through trial and error we have been able to learn from our failures and build on them to create our final product. Instead of being an annoyance like the tinfoil the thread is lightweight and barely noticeable on the glove providing a stylish look and proper performance. When using a phone with the glove the phone is not gltichy and can be easily used. The final product provides a warm lightweight feel allowing one to use their phone, without getting frostbite when it's negative degrees outside.

Prototype 1 Created on October 21

We settled with the touch screen glove idea. Since winter is approaching, many people are going to wear gloves to keep their hands warm and many gloves are not touch screen sensitatve. This causes an inconvenience to people as they have to remove their gloves in order to use their phone. Therefore we opted to solve this problem by making a glove that is touch screen sensative to eliminate this inconvenience. We started by using aluminum foil first since aluminum is conductive. We thought this might work and to our surprise it worked a little. However it was extremely glitchy and it was not ideal to use. We then decided on the next best alternative, conductive thread and ordered a spool on Amazon Prime.

Prototype 2 Created on October 27

After the first prototype, we realized that the aluminum foil was clunky and not very effective. We agreed we will need some other kind of conductive material. We then chose to use conductive threading to make it so that the glove maintains it's flexibility. This was a major issue with the first prototype since we think the crinkly ridges formed by the aluminum foil may have been the reason why its so glitchy. For the second design we sewed the conductive threading through the fingertip and used the threading itself as the conductor. This produced much better results.
