These temporary tattoos could be used as a new form of monitoring criminals such as rapists and murderers. They would have to wear the the tattoo their entire life and would be designed based on their level of crime. The tattoo could be coded to security sensor systems such as schools and malls that if the person tried accessing the location and the sensor was set to detect their level of crime the doors would lock and security would be notified.

Other uses could be as a new method of creating home security features where instead of locks and keys the user would swipe a certain section or combination of sections of the tattoo to release the dead bolt and gain entrance into the home.

The tattoo could also be used to start a car remotely where door locks are no longer needed.
 
You can do all of that with RFIDs. Also, society has bad connotations of using tattoos to brand people. There was this guy in the 30's and 40's who used tattoos to do that. He murdered alot of people.
 
If they have to wear the tattoos their whole lives, how are the tattoos temporary? :confused:
