PIEZORESISTIVE SENSORS AND SENSOR ARRAYS

摘要

Highly expressive and flexibly programmable foot-operated controllers are described. Specific implementations are intended for musical applications and allow musicians an unprecedented degree of control of a wide variety of musical components and subsystems for recording and/or performance.

1. A sensor array, comprising:
piezoresistive fabric; a plurality of sets of traces adjacent a same side of the piezoresistive fabric, each set of traces forming a corresponding sensor with a corresponding portion of the piezoresistive fabric; and sensor circuitry configured to receive a sensor signal from each set of traces, each sensor signal representing pressure applied to a surface of the sensor array near the corresponding sensor.
