Based on the technology of the conductive thread pressure sensor, previously used in the Analog Fabric Joypad, these slippers are designed with two inputs each that sense the pressure being weighted from the body on either the toe-balm or the heal of the foot. Feeding this analog input into a simple drawing application, allows the wearer to control the direction of a line and draw in a very simple etch-a-sketch fashion. I'm currently developing a set of games that make use of this mobile input, as well as exploring what else is possible.
