MAKING THE PRESSURE PAD. FOR REAL.

First thing was to get MDF boards ready. I used cardboard for the mock, but since I need to step on the pads, MDF would be more stable and suitable. So I went down to the workshop and we cut 8 pieces of 30x30cm boards using 3mm thick wood.

Following the same method as the mock, aluminium foil was laid onto the boards top and bottom, elastic bands and polystyrene too. Then, I attached two wires onto each pad (one on each board) for connecting to the Arduino. Black and blue were the colours of my choice. And what.
