Designing an Anklet to Help You Learn Dance Steps: A Wearable Technology Prototype

Updated: Apr 9, 2023


Visit the Miro board below to step through my process as I create a prototype for an anklet that might be able to help you learn dance steps. In this project I used:

  • Felt and conductive thread

  • A vibration disc motor and some other small circuitry components

  • Circuit python to code the Gemma and motor




This project supports:

  • understanding how to program interactive systems with multiple inputs and outputs using python

  • developing techniques for thoughtfully interfacing technology and electronics with wearable materials

  • using an interdisciplinary skillset including skills like sewing, soldering, pattern-making, and programming to create new products

  • engaging in a purposeful, human-centered design process
