Playing your music

Your Aniomagic remote control has two soft buttons:

Play/Pause: Single click
Next/Previous Track: Double click
Next/Previous Album: Triple click
Volume Up/Down: Press and hold
 
 
It works with any iPod or iPhone with a dock connector.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 Build it         (examples)
It's very easy to hookup.
  1. Cut the conductive materials to size.
  2. Make a hole in a piece of felt.
  3. Sandwich the pieces and sew together.
  4. Attach them to dock with conductive yarn.
  5. Connect to your iPod or iPhone.

How it works

It contains a tiny chip that monitors the resistance between the two sewable holes.
The resistance signify two different button presses:
  • If the resistance is less than 1kΩ: forward/volume up
  • If the resistance is more than 10kΩ: backward/volume down
You can use actual resistors, conductive fabrics, tilt sensors, or other types of sensors.

The chip also speaks the "Apple Accessory Protocol" which allows it to communicate with iPods and iPhones over the dock connection. Find out more about this protocol here.
