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 […]
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 […]
