Well here we go! Scientist have been working on various wireless technologies for the last couple of years that can be either implanted under the skin or worn on the skin.

Now, scientist have developed a monitoring device that is just as simple as a tattoo on the skin.  Is this bible prophecy coming true in our generation? What do you think?

A team of scientists and engineers at the University of Illinois has developed a “smart skin” that can be used to connect wearers to the cyber-world as easily as sticking on a temporary tattoo.

The smart skin can monitor your heart rate or brain waves, for example, or detect the electric activity in muscle contractions and send the signals to a computer, without stick-on electrodes, bulky wires, conductive gels, tape or skin-penetrating pins.

Just a few centimetres wide and thinner than a human hair, the smart skin could make monitoring people’s physiological status more comfortable and more accurate than using electrodes because it stays stuck to the skin and doesn’t interfere with the wearer’s movement, the researchers say.

“Wires and patches are not the best way to do things,” said John Rogers, a professor of material science and engineering at the University of Illinois, who led the research.  Read More
