Paperboards or Paper-PCBs ===================================

For all kind of media installation based on controller and electronic you require printed circuit boards. To get one someone have to manufacture them. Cause of the industrial standards, that is really complicated, it needs some days or weeks and it is expensive, too. Another possibility is to develop them by yourself and that means you end up with a lot of dangerous chemicals and have to drill hundreds of holes.

Paperboards or Paper PCBs are a smart way to prevent all that. It is an open hardware system that helps you to create easily PCBs. You can design and modify them on your computer with a  drawing program like Gimp or Photoshop. And after printing you just stick the printed circuit on a standard protoboard (available at every electronic shop) and voila you have a proper and solid printed PCB. The system allows you to have an individual, colourful design, too.

It is a perfect extension to the Arduino system and at the same time it is so powerful that you can create your own Paperduino with it. Because it also is a modular system you can combine different Paperboards to build real complex machines.

Midi to Output

you need:
- protoboard
- printer
- transparent paper
- double sided tape
- needle
- cutter

1. Print out the drawn circuit on transparent paper;
2. Glue a doublesided tape on the back of the print;
3. Stick the printed trasparent paper on the protoboard, care about the marks;
4. Pierce all marked holes with a needle;
5. Remove the copperstripes under the chip (if it's a board with chips);
6. Cut off exess material;
... and now, start to solder!
