Dubbed "Tech Tats," the temporary tattoos use LED lights, a micro-controller, and conductive inks to create a circuit board on the surface of the skin. While they certainly look cool, Chaotic Moon imagines Tech Tats as being much more than cosmetic, from serving as a new form of wearable to playing a part in medical applications.

      Had to go watch a video of it. I was thinking it was a permanent ink that was used - but it's not - yet...

      I would do temps all over my body for a crazy concert or something.

        When the Internet of Things happens, guys gonna change channels on the TV with wifi-hitched loominous body parts.

        They will organize rowdy parties an' challenge one another to OD on operatin' their gadgets against the clock.

        Tellya, could be a whole new lease of life for the humble dictophone.

        I will settle for sumthin' discreet an' heat sensitive I can stick on my neck to dim lights an' time microwaved chocolate brownies to perfection.

        Dear sweet Jesus, the IOT is gonna be so cool.

        We are goin' to hell in a hand-held Cart.
