Flexible ultra thin electronic circuit printed on to the skin of a man's forehead. This ultrathin mesh electronic circuit was printed directly onto a person's skin. The circuit is protected by a layer of spray-on bandage and can be easily removed. The circuit can be stretched and deformed without adversely affecting performance. Future applications could include spray-on sensors that monitor the body and wearable electronic gadgets. Built by the Rogers Research Group, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
