Well first of all coming to what Mc10 Biostamp is actually, to put it in a simple manner Mc10 Biostamp is a very thin electronic sheet which is just like a sticker that can be laminated or put onto our skin. It is somewhat like a bandage which can be put onto our skin but its purpose is a little bit different that is, it is used to monitor rather than to be put onto a wound for healing. This is used to monitor our psychological data which includes our heart rate, the temperature of our body, the thing is that we can use this data to track multiple disorders one example can be like heart failure. Mc10 Biostamp is a cheap (not sure about the actual price)but a good quality monitoring system which we can use by remaining in the comfort of our home which means that we might not even need to go to the hospital for this purpose and we can simple make use of it right at our own place. The best thing about it is that it enables family members to keep a check onto let’s say a patient in their house so definitely it is a useful product especially for those who do not want to stay in the hospital for long time.

However it can be still used by doctors also to treat their patients, an added benefit of Mc10 Biostamp is that it can be used to monitor babies heart beats as well even though they seem to have soft skin but this work completely fine for them. 

Now coming onto directly how it works, it works rather like a key logger since the Biostamp sends data through an app to the user and thus the user is able to easily monitor his/her own or of someone else’s health remotely. 

The Mc10 Biostamp is going to be further worked on to take it to another level where it could be used as a permanent implantation inside the human body and other parts of the body where it cannot be used till now for example work is being done onto it to make it such a product which can replace the heart pace makers.
