MIT created a temporary tattoo that can control your connected devices - TNW
The
Next Web reports: "In the future, your tattoos could be as functional
as they are expressive.
MIT, in partnership with Microsoft, created a new touch interface,
DuoSkin, that allows temporary tattoos to interact with smartphones or
computers, display output based on body temperature changes and even
transmit data using NFC."
Comment: It's been a
while since I've come across an interesting Mark-related news report.
This high tech tattoo looks like a way of combining the
cool factor of tattoos (so popular these days) with the functionality of a tech interface. A
word of caution, I'm not saying this is the MOTB, it's just some
interesting tech to keep an eye on. I always like to emphasize that
because I'm aware that past generations went a bit nuts in tagging
emerging tech as the MOTB. I think all we can really do is watch tech
trends and see where things are going.
