Yarn Speakers
A series of experiments in soft speakers that are made with yarn.
Spring 2024, Soft Robotics
Most resources for constructing soft speakers recommend using fabric or paper as the membrane, so I set out to see if I could create a soft speaker that incorporated yarn (either as the membrane, conductive coil, or a combination). I successfully created five working speakers out of yarn. I sewed a coil with conductive thread on all of them.
