BuildBrighton is working on making a pseudo-theremin for the electronica DJs Evil Nine. It will be a MIDI controller that works by sensing arm movements using ultrasonic range finders. For more information see: www.buildbrighton.com/wiki/Theremin
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."
—Dr Andrew Flewitt
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.
White's Electronics of Sweet Home Oregon,started manufacturing geiger counters in 1950, but by 1959 switched over to metal detectors, and today make state-of-the-art, 100% American made detectors in their factory at Sweet home Oregon. They also have a museum where in one exhibit is a coin found in the Holy
Lands that predates Christ.

Here's the mostly-completed board, which actually seems to work (after a little jumpering to work around the fact that I made a single-sided board).
Next, I have to write the code which actually controls the lighting, and wire up the pushbutton switch I'm going to use for making changes to the colors and/or pattern.
