teachers developed by the DiMeB, University of Bremen
Description: A short, but significant resource description:
Magical Clothing is a short workshop, which gives an insight into Digital media and
interaction as part of the field of computer science.
In 90 minutes, the participants programme a T-shirt, so that changes the color of a sewn- RGB –
LED are realized after arm movements. The workshop is suitable for formats such as the Girls'
Day or Future and other trial hands-on workshop offers. Participants do not need any previous
experience and should be about 10 years or older.
Work is carried out with the Arduino LilyPad, a RGB – LED (which is addressed via the PWM
pins), and a quadruple switch is programmed with the Amici Software.
Here are the instructions for conducting and preparing the workshop http://dimeb.informatik.uni-
