Three students from England’s Isaac Newton Academy won top honors in the TeenTech Awards for their color-changing condoms concept, called S.T. EYE. (TeenTech Awards)
Teens think up clever condoms that would change colors to indicate STD exposure
“This is one #aftersex glow that you probably don’t want,” quipped MTV News’s Tess Barker.
Just imagine it: You’re in the, um, moment and — like a sexually responsible person — you put on a condom. But at some point, it starts to glow and change colors on you — an indication that you’ve just come in contact with a sexually transmitted disease or sexually transmitted infection.
Naturally, it would take three teenage boys to think it up. Students fromEngland’s Isaac Newton Academy have created a concept for a smart condom that would alter its luminescent hue when exposed to common STDs. There would be antibodies on the condom that would interact with the antigens of STDs, causing the condom to change colors depending on the disease.
