What do you think of the video? Will this technology support IBM Smarter Planet Initiatives?

This smart technology would help in many cases. For instance if a patient had a rare skin disease than this "electronic skin" could keep track of their health in case of emergencies. I think this could be great and beneficial for the lives of many people.

The Electronic skin can help improve the current health system. People usually use smartwatches or health apps, installed on their smart phone, to monitor their health, however, it isn't always accurate as it goes off of motion sensors that can't always record every step or they would record movements that aren't running or exercising such as placing a phone down on a table.

I think that the idea for electronic skin is good, as it links to IBM's smarter planet by being environmentally friendly, being cost efficient and it can notify someone when somethings is wrong with their body, improving the condition of someone's health.

electronic skin will support IBM's smarter planet initiative by allowing users to constantly monitor their health which could report problems before we can see them.

This technology supports a smarter planet as people can constantly be monitored and get information about their health to keep safe and aware of any issues that may cause harm to the body.

I believe the technology shown in this video will benefit people in the healthcare sector due to its useful capabilities. For instance: It's ability to monitor a patients heart rate will aid doctors in examining what the patient is suffering from or at least aid them in working

I think electronic skin is a good idea as it can help the doctors identify problems with a person. I think it supports IBM's smarter planet as it makes healthcare a lot easier.

It allows you to monitor the health of a person without causing them any discomfort and it saves time when it truly matters.

Rodin

It will be very helpful as it will provide the user with various types of information, it could be used by doctors as well.

it could be a live saving device as it could monitor someone's health before they become severely ill

If someone was to help someone if they were going into cardiac arrest monitoring here vitals

Electronic skin will make it so peoples vitals can be monitored regularly. This would be a great improvement in healthcare and a smart planet. Furthermore you could use the electronic skin to watch tv on your hand which could be a great quality of life improvement.

Jacob- It allows you to monitor your health and wellbeing constantly without being an inconvenience in your daily life. Its digital display makes it easy to understand for the person wearing it. This device can also sense when something wrong happens to the wearer and is able to notify a team who can help save the persons life before its too late. It also has the added attribute of giving digital tattoos to the wearer giving them a sense of style.

With its good durability, it will last a long time

Vedish

It is a good idea due to the fact that it can be located somewhere easy to place and remove and it is very resistant which could be used for daily usage so there is a less chance that it will get damage. It will be a huge benefit because it will help them monitor their heart rate and could help people with different diseases such as people with heart disease but also the fact that it could also help the doctors to know the patients heart rate after a accident which could be serious. And I think it will support IBM's smarter planet because it helps the healthcare sector to be much more efficient and makes it a whole lot easier.

Electronic skin can be life saving in the future as it will be able monitor patients/persons vitals and there physical health, for example there heart rate, blood pressure, blood glucose levels etc. As well as tis the patient/person will be able to see to see the vitals as a result of the digital display. As well as this it has a high durability and there for it will last a long time.

I believe that electronic skin to monitor heath is important in our society as it monitors a body's vital signs and pick up signals like heartbeats and electrical impulses. This makes electronic skin an essential in medical research as it can make many doctors' jobs easier to study patients. It supports IBM's smarter planet initiative as it using SMART objectives to achieve a more sustainable environment.

people can use it to control the device, receive information, and most importantly, record sensations through vibrations similar to that of a cell phone. This opens the door to many applications - a person with a robotic arm will be able to feel the heat from a cup or measure how much pressure is exerted on an object.

Electronic skin can give mobile communications a whole new meaning allowing for a phone to not be required to carry around to talk to others, it could even be used in the healthcare sector to help people constantly monitor their vitals such as heart rate, blood pressure and glucose levels. This technology could also eliminate the need for a smart watch to track steps, distance and calories burnt.

Omeshsingh- It allows you to monitor your health and wellbeing in your day to day life without being too much of a hassle and in several cases may save the life of the person in question since it can tell any medical personal the persons condition or give signs of something not going well in the body notifying them before it's too late. You can also edit part of your physical appearance with use of electronic tattoos.

The electronic skin can be life saving to many people in many different ways in the healthcare system to make it better. With the use of electronic skin, it means that patients heart rates, oxygen levels and blood pressure can be monitored more frequently. This will save many lives because if they need to take medication to regulate a high blood pressure because they will know when it gets too low or too high.

The skin is very cool and would help doctors monitor your health however it doesn't seem very convenient to have on your hand all the time and may affect your body physically it would also have to be extremely durable

Josh

I think it the electronic skin is a good idea as it can help Monitor your health and can prevent and dangerous diseases However there could be a downside to this as it could lead to corruption as they could have a chip inside of it allowing the company/government to know where you are.

Isaiah

I think the electronic skin is a good idea as it monitors your health for you which is an advantage

Trey

I think it's interesting as this could be the future for our clothing option. Although, I believe privacy is a core element that may impact this idea negatively, due to corruption.

Stefan-Cristian Patrulescu

This skin is world shattering, I have never thought of such an innovative idea. I believe this "electronic skin" can change our world, obesity rate will reduce and people will be healthier leading to an extended life expectancy. I believe that this invention can save lives and I strongly support IBM, I want my mother, my father, my brothers, my kids and myself to own this device. The production of electronic skin will advance the human race into the 5th industrial revolution and possibly bring us to space. I strongly believe that electronic skin will be a stepping stone for mankind to reach heights in technology never thought to be possible. Great invention I support the production of the electronic skin. 10/10

I think its a bad idea as such technology could allow the government to bypass and monitor peoples movement such location and information at most point the product may eventually expire or cause a skin disease to those that are highly allergic to the substances, however its a great idea to improve peoples mental health and there well being because it cannot be avoided/ignored.

Michael

I believe it is bad as it can decrease privacy. this is because it can be used to track people. it can also be used to gain a large amount of information about someone which is bad. however, it could also be good as it can alert anyone in case of emergency.

I think the electronic skin is good as it definitely surpasses IBM'S initiatives but arguably companies having this much access to human data which is very sensitive and valuable is dangerous as we already cant trust current companies to with hold data safely on the other hand this is a good product as it is like a smart watch that cant be lost

David Teodor Ungureanu

I like it because of the idea that it Collects information from the human body to monitor a person's vital signals, track movement, or provide inputs to establish more accurate human sensorimotor functions models. Which is beneficial for the human race and can be advance to do more things.
