The devices, which are\u00a0a thin layer of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic over-printed with an inkjet printer in less than a minute, can be adhered to the skin anywhere on the body. These are wired to a touch-controller chip which is then connected to a Raspberry Pi Zero, powered by batteries. The Zero then triggers a response based on the type of touch recorded. At present, these actions have included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a bracelet on which a two-finger rotation allows users to change the color of an LED lamp and on which a two-finger sweep controls the brightness<\/li>\n<li>a behind-the-ear sticker that lets users control the volume of a music player by swiping up or down, advance through tracks by swiping left or right, and pause playback by pressing<\/li>\n<li>a forearm sticker that, when squeezed, causes a smartphone to send a text message<\/li>\n<li>a palm-mounted sticker that lets users accept or reject calls from a smartphone, with a touch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-saarland.de\/nc\/en\/news\/article\/nr\/19038.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read a bit more (in German) over at Saarland<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone.
