For my project at Beaver Works @ MIT I created an e-textile that could mitigate and monitor late effects of Breast Cancer via mimicking massage therapy (still overall WIP !). Here is a journal/profile that talks about what I did and how did it in depth: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17FaAfciLNkcADxn70iWb7WOGT5fKpgkCjDcZ3wpDQ94/edit?usp=sharing I blogged more about it here: https://theartistotleofmythoughts.blogspot.com/2025/08/undershirt-to-mitigate-monitor-late.html Note: A lot of wiring etc was done without really "coding" here...for example the buttons you see are made of only textiles etc and I had to figure out what material to use/how much current should be able to pass through etc. Same thing with wiring up so many motors to a singular power source-- had to figure out caveats etc. So actually coding was only about 5 hours but designing project took more. I also used e-sewing/conductive thread...so again not "coding" but still hardware/or "soft"ware lol. NOTE: The demo video does not show the wearable working when it's fully assembled like when the motors are placed properly and everything, but it displays the main idea of the wearable —user pressing a textile button and motors activating in a patterned/controlled way.
