summary

Framework demonstrates how to manufacture thin, flexible circuit fibers that hide full electronics: 1.4 mm-wide ARM microcontroller, 0.9 mm magnetometer, and 1 mm-wide addressable LED arrays are fabricated on flex PCBs with ~50 μm traces, coated in silicone and braid-encapsulated. Boards run Arduino-compatible firmware; programming uses pogo-pin jigs. Durability testing includes Instron pull tests (survives weight of two soda cans) and 10,000 flex cycles with minor resistance drift. Connections and mass-assembly remain manual but factories in Shenzhen and FPC vendors can scale production.
