Designer Ledia Trubat has conceived E-Traces, a pair of electronic ballet slippers that make drawings form the dancer’s movements.Design and production of technologic pointé shoes allowing ballet dancers to recreate their movements in digital pictures using a mobile application included in the kit of the purchased product.
The concept of Electronic Traces is based on capturing dance movements and transforming them into visual sensations through the use of new technologies. To do this we focused on the ballet shoes themselves, which through the contact with the ground, and thanks to Lilypad Arduino technology, record the pressure and movement of the dancer’s feet and send a signal to an electronic device.A special application will then allow us to show this data graphically and even customize it to suit each user, through the different functions of this app.
