This instruction teaches the steps for making 'emergency glove'

Circuit Playground Express (CPX) / cable, battery for it Gloves

pen for marking

Coding

Before attaching CPX, we have to code it!

Select the button you want, (for me it was A3 and A5) put the code into one of the block form or java script form.

Make sure you check all of the possible error and test it before going next step

Attatching CPX

If you completed coding and tested it, you are ready to attach it!

Mark the point where you'll sew it and attach your CPX.

Caution: Because this is a 3D, make sure you mark it after you actually put it on. / Make sure the battery connecting spot is heading down.

Connecting

Like the attaching step before, put it on, mark it and connect it!

Connect conductive thread with the chosen button and chosen spot.

Caution: make sure thread doesn't go inside of the gloves. Just sew it through surface only.

Connecting to Battery Holder and Attach Battery Holder

Now, to give it a power, you have to connect it to battery holder.

After that turn your glove to the back and make a battery holder pocket using rubber band.

Finally you made it!

This glove will work when you touch the conductive thread that is connected to the touch sensor on CPX with your raw finger.

For the further development, you can also extend the thread so that you can touch it from the finger.
