this “z-axis conductive tape” is absolute witchcraft and I want a roll of the stuff https://www.adafruit.com/product/1656
it’s double-sided tape which is conductive only from one side to the other, conductivity is not present along the length or width of the tape!
@ticky sounds like this is basically zebra strips? (aka elastomeric connectors)
@Felthry not quite! this works on both axes; the conductivity is not restricted to a particular set of stripes
@ticky What do you mean "restricted to a particular set of stripes"?
@ticky what you describe this 3M stuff is what we had thought elastomeric connectors were, anyway. Maybe we were wrong!
@Felthry Wikipedia would be a reasonable place to look for more information
@ticky Sorry if I bothered you.
@Felthry great! these are not that!
