Potentiometer Arduino & Conductive paint test

we wanted to begin exploring using paint as a sensor in creating data. By following this tutorial we created our own version.

Instead of using the the jumper wires that goes in A0 to touch the sensor, we held the end with one hand, whilst using the other hand to run along the circuit. This worked better than when we tried doing it directly with the wire.

Whilst this means that the paint can be interacted with directly using touch, it still require the A0 jumper wire to be held. Therefore finding a way to do this that is more efficient, or an alternative was is needed.

 

We also tried doing this same application but in a different shape.

This could be applied when looking at the idea of creating an etch a sketch using the paint and arduino both concept and design of it)
