Miniaturized forms of skin-integrated devices minimize patient burden and improve compliance, but they can pose life-threatening hazards in certain situations such as choking risks in infants and skin irritations from a device malfunction. In this talk, as a safety-engineering to reduce such types of potential risks, two materials-oriented strategies are presented: (1) soft encapsulating layers of the skin-interfaced device that release chemical compounds designed to elicit an intense bitter taste when placed in the mouth and (2) introducing mechano-responsive 3D hybrid nanocomposite capable of a gigantic modulation of transmission over the full visible light spectrum to visualize the applied strain level for smart applications.
