Looked like a 70s/80s item. An AAA battery fits in the top silver knob. The others are volume/on/off and tuning. Strangely they never caught on.
The electronic tattoo, which monitors the electrical activity of the heart (EKG), brain (EEG) and muscles (EMG), is shown here, freshly applied on skin with a transparent bandage.
Why is it naked you ask? Well, tonight when I went to shoot some shots of the delicious dessert, none of the back buttons worked. Thankfully taking it apart and putting it back together seemed to fix it. So the camera isn't broken after all. Yay! :) (Taken using Michael's most excellent Nikon D70.

Vacuum tubes, resistors, diodes, a Tube Screamer guitar pedal, transistors, terminal strips and more!
This is a pile I picked up for a total price of $70.00 at an estate sale in San Francisco. The guy was apparently an electronics tech for hospitals and schools.
This photo has nothing better going for it than being a picture of our hostel, with the worst single rooms in the world that had no windows and were, at best, sparse. Still, I bet it was still better than listening to me snoring, eh Esther?
analog input from the potentiometer, map value to 0-254, output to led via pwm. The pot controls the led brightness.
When I received this and plugged it in, the first thing that happened was a huge flame shot out of it...
Today I took a closer look and found the component that caught fire, bought a new one at Kjell&Co and replaced it. It works! Sounds great!
Surface mount LEDs resting delicately on copper wires twined together to create beautiful shimmering LED trees, Arbormorphic - ascribing tree form or attributes to a being or thing not tree.
During the dis-assembly process aluminum is removed from electronics such as computers, monitors and televisions, then recycled. This aluminum will go to a large metals sorting/chipping/baling facility to be sent for remanufacturing.
A new generation of cheap lightweight plastic electronic technology that does not require silicon, but which is optically transparent and can be coated onto everyday objects would transform our world.
"Working collaboratively with industry is not only satisfying in that I see aspects of my work translate into real engineered products, but it provides inspiration for new avenues of research too. Roadmapping then allows me to critically assess how I should be developing my research portfolio and engaging with industry to maximise the likelihood of productive collaboration."

Imagine electronically updated food labels, computers embedded in our armchairs, even contact lenses linking us directly to the Internet to bring us into the age of plastic electronics. In this video podcast Dr Andrew Flewitt and Dr Robert Phaal both from the Department of Engineering and Scott White serial entrepreneur and CEO of Pragmatic Printing talk about the creative partnership forged between different parts of the Department of Engineering and outside companies that enable the technology and research in this area to be exploited successfully.
