However, copper tape has a number of drawbacks if one is prototyping with soft materials, textiles, or even directly on the human body. Because it is not elastic, it does not adhere well to such materials. Sports tape, however, has the desired elastic qualities, and additionally is designed to adhere not only to arbitrary objects, but also to human skin. We polymerize sports tape to make it conductive. The resulting conductive tape has a series of electrical properties which make it an exciting sensor-material. It is piezo-re-sistive. This means its resistance changes with applied forces. It can also be used to create a voltage gradient, which enables simple and precise position sensing. This unique combination of mechanical and electrical proper-ties makes it an exciting and unique prototyping<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone is-resized wp-image-163 size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gtt.ufg.at\/tei2021swatchexchange\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2021\/02\/Unbenannt2-2.jpg\" alt=\"The tape sticked on the left hand and the right hand operating the tape sensor.

I see further potential in pushing the craft of this material, such as creating more complex sensor shapes with a laser cutter to instrument complicated objects like a glove.
