Felted Signal Processing is the arts and research project of sisters Sarah and Lara Grant, focused on soft interface design and sensor development.
Lara has a background in costume and textile design and soft sensor development. Sarah has a background in visual arts and creative development. They are both alumnae of NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program.

An inside look into Lara’s thesis project as she get’s ready to graduate from the Interactive Telecommunications Program at NYU.
This project is on the research and development of soft sensors and circuitry while using handmade felt as a focused medium.
Please stay tuned for the transference of all research and final sensors being developed. For now please visit the thesis page on Lara’s blog. Also, click on “thesis” under the CLASSES side bar for further exploration into the process.

Three sensors are encased in this large red button, two digitals and one analog
Sensor consists of three separate stretch sensors, use each individually or in series as one.
Five pressure sensors act as a stroke sensor, start from bottom of spike, as you pull up the resistance lessens. Or pinch along length of spike to obtain specific values.
