Google's smart temporary tattoos are loaded with sensors that react to touch and function as a touchpad on your skin to connect with your devices.  Google is developing them with Saarland University in Germany.  By developing an R&D pipeline of wearables, Google is on to something big.  Experts at IDC forecast that wearables are the next big thing after smartphones.  370 million wearable devices will be sold globally this year.  Wearable sales will jump to 520 million by the end of 2022.  And, the technology giants are on this new battlefield including Apple, Samsung, Amazon and Facebook, through its subsidiary Oculus.  Google is very much part of this innovation game.
