Innovative. At the yearly competition at the TeenTech Awards with the goal being “technology to make life better, simpler or easier” A group of designers have created a special type of condom that upon contact will change colors if an STI is detected.
They have titled the product as S.T. Eye and it works by using unnoticeable chemicals on the condom that will have a chemical reaction if it encounters bacteria that are most associated with well-known STIs. Maybe this technology can evolve into something you can do alone and test yourself.
The S.T. Eye color code:
yellow:herpes
green: chlamydia
blue: syphilis
purple: found the human papillomavirus
