This LED tattoo article is focused on a pretty specific technology that was researched in 2009 and 2014 and hasn't gone much further since then. I believe that readers would be better served by a broader article, electronic tattoo, about tattoo-like devices that integrate electronics for medical and artistic purposes, including LED tattoos. Potential references:
E-Tattoos: Toward Functional but Imperceptible Interfacing with Human Skin (Chemical Reviews, 2024) "E-Tattoos, a unique type of wearable electronics, are defined by their ultrathin and skin-soft characteristics, which enable noninvasive and comfortable lamination on human skin surfaces without causing obstruction or even mechanical perception."
I considered whether we should rename this article smart tattoo and include both electronic tattoos and tattoos that involve special chemicals for sensor purposes (such as fluorescent glucose biosensor#Smart tattoo, referenced from UV tattoo), but I don't think that's the right direction. Not all of the people working on electronic tattoo projects describe them as "smart" tattoos. These seem like related but separate concepts.
Thanks for the ping! Literally caught me midway through getting a tattoo lol. I'd actually noticed this article a while ago and had wondered what could be done to salvage it. I think your idea is a great solution. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 05:13, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
