In one of the most brilliant moves I have seen in a while, a group of students have invented a nail polish that changes colour when exposed to date-rape drugs.<\/p>\n

The beauty of ‘Undercover Colors’ is that the woman will be able to discreetly stir her drink with her finger.<\/p>\n

If the polish changes colour then the woman will know she is in danger and can make a sharp exit (and hopefully a call to the police)<\/p>\n

Preventing Sexual assault<\/h2>\n

The firm says it is the “first fashion company empowering women to prevent sexual assault”.<\/p>\n

\"iStock_000029272352XSmall\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“While date rape drugs are often used to facilitate sexual assault, very little science exists for their detection,” it said on its Facebook page.<\/p>\n

“Our goal is to invent technologies that empower women to protect themselves from this heinous and quietly pervasive crime.”<\/p>\n

The brainiacs behind this invention are Tyler Confrey-Maloney, Stephen Gray, Ankesh Madan, and Tasso Von Windheim, who are students at the Materials Science and Engineering Department at North Carolina State University.<\/p>\n

They were inspired to create the polish after one of their friends suffered a sexual assault.<\/p>\n

“As we were thinking about big problems in our society, the topic of drug-facilitated sexual assault came up,” Madan told Higher Education Works.<\/p>\n

“All of us have been close to someone who has been through the terrible experience, and we began to focus on finding a way to help prevent the crime.”<\/p>\n

Commercially Viable<\/h2>\n

They are now looking to develop the product so it is able to be sold commercially.<\/p>\n

I have to say, everyone here at XEscorts backs them in their quest to improve the safety of women everywhere. <\/p>\n

Good luck guys!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
