The condom uses a built-in indicator that changes to a different color depending on the bacteria or infection it detects. The students said it may glow green for chlamydia, yellow for herpes, purple for human papillomavirus, or blue for syphilis.

So once you are actively in the act, and the condom starts reacting then what do you do? Awkward...  

Sounds like a cool science project, but very impractical.  How about false positives or false negatives?  

What would be the biological dynamics that would be critical in concatenating the diagnosis with the carrier?  Also what is the accuracy that the prophylactic has within a +/- range as well

Oh, and I see no mention of HIV...

the carrier of wearing a condom?

What if the people involved are color blind?  Were the students professional hookers and johns?

90% of the time we do that, if the john is infected we don't, or the smart ones don't

It is science project which earned the pithy 1,000 pounds.  

By dorking infected people?  I can just see the ad for volunteers:  "Are you a syphilitic gnome? We will pay you $5 for your time and get you laid. On a stainless steel table in front of three scientists and four very bright school kids."

Idiot. I would care with a condom or not... no brainer. What if that fker turned like 8 colors, is what I am wondering lol.

Making my cock a "meat thermometer".

How you know that any percentage of women do whatever they do is an amazing skill.

I have many clients that are gay....and damn proud of it  

I mean that message had some teeth and TRUTH to it. Don't get me wrong. But I would have liked to have seen that from an open handle! Give the lady a break. She as all of us can become overly consumed with our experiences alone. To the point that it becomes a BROAD perspective!

...very small print on them.  Very funny!

If they want to commercialize, someone will have to figure it out.

About the stainless steel table, anyway.  Your point is well taken that testing would need to confirm any marketing claims.
