OK, this is a bit icky, but you knew machines would eventually meld with people. Engineer Jim Mielke has designed a wireless keyboard display that slides under your skin and is powered by blood (which flows into and out of a coin-sized fuel cell). The display includes an on-off button, a touchscreen interface, and microscopic spheres that change color from clear to black -- your iPhone meets the tattoo. The designer claims the device could actually have medical benefits, such as monitoring blood disorders and warning you of pending health trouble.
Imagine the future.
Hon, hold on one moment. I have another call on my other arm.
Please turn off all cell phones and body parts during the motion picture.
Son, have you been drinking? Let me see your wrist display!
The device was unveiled at the Greener Gadgets Design Competition, where you could also find degradable phones, camping umbrellas that produce solar energy, and, our favorite, the powerstrip with small foot ejector pedals (who wants to bend to get the cord?).

Ok that is cool but at the same time kind of creepy.
