1. Cut a piece of card stock (about 2.5” x 1”). Fold the card stock in half. Trace the battery shape on both halves. Mark the left side as positive (+) and the right side as negative (-). 2. Attach the folded paper on the bottom of your project with glue, tape, adhesive, etc. 3. […]
Other Materials
What can I make with Circuit Stickers? Circuit stickers are light, paper-thin and flexible circuit boards cut into small, fun shapes with anisotropic conductive adhesive on the back. The adhesive sticks to most surfaces and can be used with virtually any conductive materials as “wiring”– such as conductive threads and paints or even wires and […]
What Makes You Shine?
What Makes You Shine? Make a light-up name badge and share something about yourself Grade Level: Suitable for Grade 2 and up Suggested Time: 30-45 mins Overview This activity introduces simple circuits using Chibitronics LED light stickers. The students will be able to introduce and express something special about themselves by making a personal light-up […]
Crafted face illustration with effect sticker
Hi Everyone, I would like to share this new project that I made using Fade Effect Sticker and LEDs. Effect Stickers are pre-programmed stickers that make the LEDs light-up in different patterns, depending on which sticker you choose: blink on and off, fade in and out, pulse in a heartbeat, and twinkle like a star. […]

Take one accordion and adhere the ends of one side by folding it in half. Repeat for all three accordions. Connect the […]
Chibitronics Circuit Stickers at SIGGRAPH
We just got back from sunny, LA, where we had a great time at SIGGRAPH. Using circuit stickers, Agic conductive ink, and Conductak conductive sticky putty, we made a beautiful circuitry – CircuitTree!

Ferris Wheel
This tutorial will show you how to solder to circuit stickers and use the programmable microcontroller to create a ferris wheel with spining lights. The tutorial will be divided into two sections- programming your microcontroller and crafting your circuit. You will need: An In System Programmer (ISP) to connect the microcontroller sticker to the computer and […]
How to Solder
This tutorial will explain how to solder to circuit stickers. You will need: Soldering Iron Solder Copper Tape LED sticker Step 1. Place an LED. Lay down your copper tape so that the tape sits on top of the conductive pads of the LED. Step 2. Heat up your soldering iron. Step 3. Cut a piece of solder, […]
Chibitronics at the White House STEM Event
We shared Chibitronics Circuit Stickers at the White House’s STEM event, “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day.” The goal was to get youth interested in and excited about STEM careers. There were several activity stations, and we helped the OSTP Staff (Office of Science and Technology Policy) create custom electronic cards. We […]
Chibitronics Design Team Call
Chibitronics Circuit Stickers launched at the Craft & Hobby Show in Anaheim earlier this year. We had a great response from the show, as seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maDp0-DKss4&feature=youtu.be We are a new company, and are looking for our inaugural design team. If you love scrapbooking, cardmaking, decorating, and sewing, we’d love you to develop and share […]
Piano Notes
This tutorial will show you one possible way you can use the programmable microcontroller—to visualize music! When triggered the LEDs will light up in order corresponding to the notes of a very basic piano song- “Hot Cross Buns.” You will need: An In System Programmer (ISP) to connect the microcontroller sticker to the computer and […]
Hacking a Box
To hack an existing box you will need: LED Circuit Stickers Conductive copper tape 3V coin cell battery Small box with removable lid Scissors Regular tape Optional: Construction paper or other decorations Step 1. Add any base decorations to your box. In this case, the box had a ripped space in the center so I used construction paper to […]
