A team of researchers at the University of Missouri has published a study that details how they used the tool to create bioelectric monitoring wearables.
It is said that the pencils with cores made from more than 90 percent graphite conduct a significant amount of energy when you use them to write on office supply paper.
The graphite can double as a sensing electrode, while the paper provides a flexible supporting structure. The team found pencils with 93 percent graphite content worked the best.
