EM Brace Prototype Testing
My ITP thesis, the EM Brace, is up and running. The EM Brace is a wearable device for physically engaging with ambient electromagnetic frequencies emitted by computers and other electronics. It does so by turning these frequencies into sounds that are sent into a “bass-shaker” speaker in the back of the device. Metallic arms reaching around the wearer help distribute the vibrations coming from the speaker.
Here are some testing videos and photos of fabrication and “guts” (preamp circuit, amp circuit, speaker). For specific component parts, check out the previous “thesis” entries.
