In 2015, Daanyaal Ali, Chirag Shah, and Muaz Nawaz from Isaac Newton Academy created a concept called S.T.EYE, a condom designed to change color when detecting certain sexually transmitted infections. The science idea involved embedding antibodies or reactive molecules into the latex that would bind to specific proteins from pathogens like chlamydia or syphilis. That binding could trigger a chemical reaction producing a visible color shift. While innovative for awareness, real world implementation faces major challenges in sensitivity, safety, and reliability.
