Winter, a smartphone and gloves, or prepare your finger in the summer ...
The winter-winter, frost and sun are just around the corner, the day is wonderful ... The sun is good, but the frost ... Having become accustomed to freely use the smartphone in the summer, I want to also use it freely in the winter. But with this there are certain problems.
Who has it, but my hands are cold in winter. Therefore, I wear gloves on them. At the same time, reading the Twitter tape, or even just answering the call becomes very difficult: take off the gloves, get the phone, wave the freezing finger on the unlock slider ... and urgently put the gloves back on, because the hands are freezing.
A little googling, experimenting and being inspired by this post on Habré, I decided to make miracle gloves that can be manipulated in the cold with any smartphone with a capacitive screen (which include screens and androids and iPhones, and the absolute majority of other modern smartphones). Process, result and video - tackle.

For making miracle gloves, as well as the author of the above post, I used an antistatic film. If you at least once bought a hard drive, you most likely already have it. A package of gray translucent film, perhaps with some such badge:
Here is a piece of this film separately:
For experiments, I used such a powerful winter glove, fur inside, very warm and guaranteed to prevent manipulation with the touch screen:
I cut out a film about half a centimeter wide and from the end of the index finger to the base of the thumb:
To attach the film to the glove, I used instant glue-gel - the gel compound retains its flexibility and does not crumble when it dries. At least, it is written on the box, do not count for advertising.
As a result, such a band appeared on the finger of the glove, almost imperceptible from the outside (in the photo it glows with light from the screen, I had to tinker with it to manifest):
Immediately, I note that according to the results of the experiments, the shape of the film is not important for reliable operation, but its sufficiently large area is important.
The result of the work is on video. As you can see, the screen responds quite vividly, without any problems.
When doing something, always remember to see if anyone has done something like this. Of course! How did I forget ... well, I spent on everything about everything for a couple of hours, of which most of the time was spent on photos and the post, so the losses are small.
