Datoo

Technology has given momentum to self-expression as well as communication. In response to current trends towards increasing connectivity, German-American industrial designer, inventor and founder of Frogdesign Hartmut Esslinger has come up with idea of wearable technology called Datoo or DNA tattoo. According to him ‘The idea of ‘Datoo’ is to use the human body itself as hardware and interaction platform through use of minimally invasive, recyclable materials’. Datoos will be created on the body or clothes or accessories so that users can have constant access to them. Energy will be pulled from human body to run the programs. At the end of the day these tattoos can be washed off and next day, user can order a new one!
