Electronic Skin

Have you ever imagined that you actually poses some popular super hero’s well scientist came up with a interesting invention which is a revolutionary and certainly improve the health system in general. Just imagine that you have a tiny tattoo on your skin and when something is wrong with your body or organs it will be signaled from a tattoo. Scientist was trying to build a device that similar to the newest tattoo invention that was initially in a form of a simple wrapping. But they had a problem because they couldn’t come up with the appropriate material that was flexible enough and could easily be attached to the skin and follow the line of the body. The first invention of this kind was EEG invented by German doctor Hans Berger and it was used for measuring brain’s electrical activity. The major drawbacks of this invention were that it was bulky with a lot of wires and it didn’t have enough power supply. So they found that arranging silicon wires in a way similar to the accordion they could let it bend easily without a problem. They also had the problem of the power supply since they couldn’t make it work without wires so they figured out that they could use silicon as an electricity generator. Over the years they have been improving it and made a temporary tattoo that you put on yourself. My opinion with this is that it would improve the society and make it much safer since you could have a dieses that you don’t know of but the tattoo detects it and sends it to the hospital so they could help you before it to late.
