The idea pretty much it turns your skin into a monochrome screen.

I hope to someday see this become a reality.

That would be pretty cool. And it's removable too.

This gives new meaning to your left hand being your best friend.

The device is removable but are the marks that indicate where the controls are?

What caught my eye was: "It also continously monitors for many blood disorders, alerting the person of a health problem."

Imagine this thing in diabetics, cancer patients, and a host of other people with issues that give tracers in the blood. No more catheters and blood drawing for diagnostics! And it has great potential for other uses to boot.

Win!

I like the blood alcohol level warning they use in the bottom picture as an example. Would that be likely to increase or decrease drinking, do you think, if most people had one?

I've always joked about using tatoos to keep equations and other such useful tools/answers for 'cheating' (is it really cheating it if its permanently attached to your body if not your brain?) on quizzes/tests, but this takes it to a whole new level...

Teacher, "no calculators on this quiz!"
student, "ok, but can we use our tatoos?"
