At theRensselaer Polytechnic Institute, researchers have come up with a “programmable tattoo” concept that could someday let you switch your tattoos with a wireless internet connection. This technology uses hair-sized nanotubes embedded in the skin to display an image of your choice. The two main suggested uses are displaying an icon on your cheek that tells everyone your mood, and displaying reminders on your palm to replace the traditionally sloppy pen-to-hand note taking.
Philips is also working on a similar project calledSKIN:Tattoo, where your tattoos could respond to senses, like a woman’s touch. After the jump, watch a video example.uuuuup!” or something lol.
