Teens Invent Condoms That Change Color When They Detect STDs

https://www.google.com/am...es-color-w

The condom, called S.T.EYE, won the health category at the TeenTech Awards in London, which is an annual competition that aims to inspire 11- to 16-year-olds to realize “their true potential and the real opportunities available in the contemporary STEM workplace.”

S.T.EYE would theoretically have molecules in the rubber that would glow when it comes into contact with different pathogens. The condom would glow green for chlamydia, yellow for herpes, purple for human papillomavirus (HPV) and blue for syphilis. The conversation that would follow would certainly have the culprit blushing bright red.

I would say taste the rainbow but that may be taken further by some than meant

I couldn't help but picture a swirl of colors. Ew. lol

I'm sure it's possible. But how embarrassing, who'd voluntarily wear one and it would be a little late if it detects both ways. Cute idea though.

Key word. They didn't invent anything.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.
