I am working on something (just got started).  I have some information I
just from  a manufacturer on something called force sending resistors.  Now,
by themselves, that is nothing new, BUT, they have ones that have 4
different zones. , And they have some smaller ones that would be just right
for tapping with the thumb or fingers.

This four zone thing looks like it could be set up kind of like a joystick
with and axis up-and-down and one side-to-side BUT with the ability to
actually have all four active at one time by laying down multiple fingers.
I was thinking about something you could lay you hand down onto that would
have stuff all in the right places for fingers and thumbs.  My limited
thinking is that you could have multiple control voltages out of it and set
up some of the smaller pads for mod CVs or tapping out gates or triggers.
All this is a little beyond me right now, but I am trying to learn and
enlist the help of those that know more than me about it.

I would certainly like to hear if others might be interested in something
like this and what kind of features it should have.  Right now it is just
very conceptual with me.

And then there's this link I just found on the Nord Modular list...

Looks interesting, but I can't find ANY more information on it...
