Graphing Band Aid
Designer: Banning Rowles

Given that sweat transports many of the elements found in the blood to the surface of the skin, this bandaid could be given color changing abilities to react to certain blood levels. In order to be more easily understood, the bandaid could show the concentration level of a given element by means of a graph. In effect, this bandaid would function similarly to the power strip found on many batteries today.

Ideally this bandaid could be applied to measuring toxins, testing for drugs, or as a means to gather nutritional data. Some data could be gathered to see if an individual is working at their optimal performance.
