In the near future, you’ll no longer have to memorize your password thanks to Motorola’s electronic stamps.
These high-tech tattoos are the type of tattoos that you don’t want to show off. Developed by Massachusetts engineering firm MC10, the Biostamps are tattoos that contain flexible electronic circuits that signal your phone when you’re prompted for your password. The tattoos are attached to your skin through the use of a rubber stamp, which is a good thing for people afraid of needles—myself included. The Biostamps will alleviate people from the irritations of having to memorize numerous passwords.
Since almost everything nowadays requires some form of verification, these electronic stamps will bring a whole new means to personal security.
