Sexually transmitted diseases may soon become a thing of the past after a group of students invented a ‘smart’ condom that can detect the bacteria.
Named as S.T.EYE, the condom changes colour when exposed to a sexually transmitted disease could help to cut the spread of the illnesses.
The idea has bee n dreamt up by a group of students taking part in the TeenTech awards as a way to combat soaring infection rates.
Its unique concept includes a layer impregnated with molecules that attach to the bacteria and viruses associated with the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
