"Learn to Touch Type" Glove
summary
A functional prototype pairs a glove of five conductive pressure sensors read by Arduino with analog sensors to a web UI via serial (cereal / nerves_uart), JavaScript and Elixir umbrella apps and Phoenix channels. Events carry IDs so key presses and finger contacts are matched by a matcher that yields four outcomes (correct key/correct finger, correct key/wrong finger, etc.). The system highlights results live in the browser and mostly works but shows race conditions, uppercase handling gaps, and ordering glitches despite the motivating 124 WPM typing clip.
