Your favorite fermented drink could be used in wearable tech like smartwatches and heart monitors.

from a team of researchers co-led by Andrew Adamatzky at the University of the West of England, Bristol, dried mats made from the SCOBY floating atop kombucha batches can provide a malleable surface on which to print simple circuit boards.

In addition to being more flexible than many conventional electronics, researchers argue the augmented kombucha surfaces could be cheaper, lighter, and far more eco-friendly than current options on the market.also explains, the new kombucha mats work so well because they are naturally non-conductive. Therefore, electrical currents safely remain within the circuits installed by researchers via both an aerosol polymer spray and 3D-printing.
