The Daily Mail quoted Korean scientists as saying, when the technology is commercialized, it will be a revolution in medical diagnostics worldwide. Professor Park Hyun-gyu said his team will develop technology to detect a wide range of diseases from diabetes to cancer, from biomolecules that transmit signals on touch screens. However, according to researcher Won Byoung-yeon, more work is needed to improve the technology. Currently only reaches the level of determination of the existence and concentration of certain biological molecules.

After finishing, the technology from the laboratory to real life will save time and money and bring convenience to billions of people.
