How much screen time do you log per week? One day, that number could rise dramatically because the screen could be your skin. As Edd Gent reports for LiveScience, scientists have created a new technology that lets a person’s skin act as an electronic display.
The research, published in the journal Science Advances, shows proof of concept of a wearable display that’s only three millionths of a meter thick. The electronic skin is laminated onto human skin, turning into a display complete with organic light-emitting diode (OLED) that give information about what’s going on in the wearer's body. Though the prototype focuses on sensing the oxygen concentration of the wearer’s blood, its inventors think the technology could one day be used to visualize other data on the body.
