wiring

We were also able to download and run the example code from both of the example code in the Arduino and Processing libraries. However, we ran into trouble when trying to get readings from the Processing code:

unstable detection

The detection seemed to be very unstable, and the reasons might be:

  1. Grid is too small (3×3)
  2. Grid fabrication may be incorrect
  3. Potential wiring issues

We will try to sort out the problems before moving on to customizing the outputs.
