Abstract
A sensor-compatible overlay is disclosed which uses anisotropic conductive material to increase capacitive coupling of a conductive object through the overlay material to a capacitive sensor. The anisotropic conductive material has increased conductivity in a direction orthogonal to the capacitive sensor. In one embodiment, the overlay is configured to enclose a device which includes a capacitive sensor. In another embodiment, the overlay is configured as a glove.
