The condom , called S.T.EYE , won the health family at theTeenTech Awardsin London , which is an yearly competition that aims to inspire 11- to 16 - year - old to realize “ their on-key potential drop and the real opportunities uncommitted in the present-day STEM work . ”

S.T.EYE would theoretically have mote in the rubber that would beam when it comes into contact with unlike pathogens . The prophylactic would glow immature for chlamydia , yellow for herpes , purple for human papillomavirus ( HPV ) and blue for syphilis . The conversation that would follow   would certainly have the culprit blushing bright bolshie .
