Sophy Wong HackSpace Wearable Tech Projects book

Make a wearable game controller

Fans of Sophy Wong will already know about the amazing wearable tech that she develops. We wanted to make sure that more people discovered her work and the incredible world of wearable technology. You’ll start simple with sewable circuits and LEDs, and work all the way up to building your own wearable controller (complete with feathers) for an interactive, fully immersive game of Flappy Bird.

Pick up the tricks of the trade

Along the way, you’ll embed NFC data in a pair of cufflinks, laser cut jewellery, 3D print LED diffusers onto fabric for a cyberpunk leather jacket, and lots more.

Learn new techniques from Sophy Wong

You’ll discover new techniques for working with fabric, find out about the best microcontrollers for your projects, and learn the basics of CircuitPython, the language developed at Adafruit for physical computing. There’s no ‘Hello, World!’ or computer theory here; this is all about practical results and making unique, fascinating things to wear.
