The hi-tech tattoo that could replace ALL your passwords:
Motorola reveals plans for ink and even pills to identify us
May 31, 2013
Motorola has announced it is looking at alternatives to traditional
passwords in a bid to make logging into online sites, or accessing
mobile phones, more secure. Among the ideas discussed at the D11
conference in California on Wednesday were electronic tattoos and
authentication pills that people swallow. The tattoos, developed by
Massachusetts-based engineering firm MC10, contain flexible electronic
circuits that are attached to the wearer’s skin using a rubber stamp. A
researcher at the University of Illinois used standard CMOS
semiconductor computer chip technologies to create the Biostamp. It uses
high-performance silicon and can stretch up to 200 per cent. The
Biostamp can monitor temperature, hydration and strain, among other
medical statistics The first prototypes were stuck on using an
plaster-style patches. More recent prototypes are applied directly to
the skin using a rubber stamp. It can then be covered with spray-on
bandage to make it more durable and waterproof enough to wash. More
