New cool inventions

Turn anything to a sensor.

Hello,

Years ago i was taught that a computer consists of input and output devices, there were the main two input devices : Mice and Keyboards.

Other input devices were much interesting, like joysticks, cameras , etc.

Our new invention for this blog isn't really an invention by itself, it is an amazing tool enabling you make amazing inventions as you will see.

Our new invention is called Touch board, as the invention name implies, it is concerned with touch, literally you use it for a whole new input/output strategy.

Basically you use touch board to play a sound stored on its memory card by its built-in MP3 player by touching any of its 12 electrodes.

You can connect its 12 electrodes to any conductive material, and play sounds when you touch those materials, so you can use this new invention ( touch board ) to make some educational tool like this for your kids.

This tool says A apple when your kid touches letter A, you can also make some funny games for them, you can replace images of letters by images of bits and make a touch plays their names.

This new invention comes with another amazing feature, the distance sensor, using this you can trigger any event based on the event of something is moving towards it like the following picture.

Using this feature also makes you capable of making something like a completely virtual drums!

You can also draw your own conductors and use them as light switches for example.

To draw these virtual switches, use the invention's pen.

Watch a demo video about this amazing new invention and how you can use it simply to create your own inventions ( Don't forget to send us your new inventions to publish for our other dear readers !).
