Entry Number 3925

A cream filled with nanobots, Skindiglo is easily applied anywhere on the body. The nanobots can receive voice commands and wireless information (such as broadcast time) and then arrange themselves in the form of a clock, a calendar, or any image the user desires, right there on the surface of the skin. The layer of cream needed is so thin as to seem weightless. It wears off naturally and is replaced whenever the user wishes.
Andrewes: Incorporating time in a cream was one of the most original ideas proposed in this competition. If the contestant’s description of the future of nanotechnology becomes a reality, then a concept such as Skindiglo has very real potential for the future of wearable timekeepers.
