NeonDough: 導電性粘土を用いた光る粘土細工

抄録

In general, it is assumed that clay crafting with dynamic clay draws out creativity more than with common colored clay of which the color is static in contrast to its flexible form. NeonDough is clay crafting with dynamic glowing clay which contains a module that consists of electronic circuits, sensors and LEDs. To be specific, the colors of the LEDs are altered according to the resistance between the modules' electrodes. Pressing pieces of clay together mixes their colors, while stretching pieces apart changes the color gradually. In this thesis we describe the design and implementation of the device, the objective reactions from its use and future prospects.
