Skintile Electronic Sensing Jewelry Blings Your Mood October 16, 2007

Designed by Philips alongside Stella, a project that is developing flexible electronic substrates for the medical world, Skintile jewelry is an adhesive body adornment that can light up depending on your mood. Everything is contained in the substrate—energy supply, sensors, actuators and display, and Philips rather saucily claims that it is "arousal enhancing." Well, I guess if you wind the design below round your erect penis to signal that you've got a hard-on, then yes, I guess it is.

The Philips blurb describes it as a "semi disposable, bio compatible, non-allergenic, breathable, mass customizable, self contained body-worn accessory." And I'm guessing it's one for the ladies, although, if it really does reflect your mood, then I'd pass on it if you're prone to PMT, as it will probably turn black and start spelling out "Crazy-Assed Bitch. Leave now if you wish to survive." in Morse code. [Stella via Philips and Yanko]
