We also didn&#8217;t want to make a fabric touch screen, we decided to focus on the properties of touches. For example, puppies don&#8217;t generally like a rapid swipe. Gentile touches are preferred over hard presses. Feedbacks of the puppy&#8217;s preference will be delivered through digital feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also possibilities in mapping different sound properties to the location of touches, but we want to first focus on properties of touches\/swipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For this week, our parts should be arriving soon, and we will be playing with the multi-touch kit and each creates our first version of a multi-touch sensor. We plan to use conductive tape and\/or conductive fabric for the first prototype.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Narjes Pourjafarian, Anusha Withana, Joseph A. Paradiso, and J\u00fcrgen Steimle. 2019.
