We've had some requests about our own demo Nano robot sumo "BittyBad", which uses a pair of GM15 gear motors. On the GM15 detail page, you'll see a picture of it! It features 2 GM15 gear motors, two 90mA/h LiPoly 3.7V batteries (in series), two "ProxDots" objects sensors, a pair of edge-sensors and a (gasp!) […]

We are always on the search of cool technology, so when we came across Bare Conductive, we thought: pizza! what a great find! Bare Conductive is a design and technology company from the UK that makes sensing tools for engineers, designers, and makers. They produce a line of electrically conductive paint, capacitive sensor hardware and a range of kits that are extremely well designed, documented, and accompanied by fun projects.
Here are the two projects contributed by the BareConductive community members:

A Conductive Sound Wall is a project that uses a Touch Board and Electric Paint to turn a flat drawing into an interactive sound experience.
Bare Conductive designs and manufactures a suite of technologies that transform surfaces and objects into precise, robust and low cost sensors. This range of kits provides users with context and focused project outcomes for these future-facing platforms, regardless of experience level.

BEP Application: Pummer
The following instructions detail how to build a simple pummer using a BC2 (Bicore) BEP (Bicore Experimenter PCB). A pummer is a solar powered self activating LED flasher. The difference between a pummer and a BLFNAR (blinky light for no apparent reason) is that a pummer has a soft turn off, which means that it turns on fast, but slowly fades away.
