Do you think this is just a banal tattoo ?

 Wearable computing device : Print device directly on your skin 

 Actually this tattoo is an incredible skin- wearable circuit composed by microprocessors, wireless communications, and energy storage components. It has been imagined by John Rogers a materials scientist at the University of Illinois. This wearable circuits as its name indicates, stick on your skin like a stamp and really good illustrate wearable computing device which characterize technology in or on the body.

                                                             

 

                                                                              - Imagine - 

 

 The possibility offered by hardware integrating the body is huge, it seems revolutionary for Healthcare : For example, this technology could measure your heart rate, body impact and hydration levels and maybe in a near future, not only to measure but also to control and modify some of your organs activity...

 

Generally speaking, wearable computing device seems to be in vogue: Google glass, smart watch, artificial eyes as a camera built into your body, smart clothes... 

 

 

                                                   Do you have in mind other wearable computing device ?
