Your iphone can test if you are allergic to a food you are about to eat.

A team of researchers from the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering and Applied Science has developed a lightweight device called the iTube, which attaches to a common cell phone to detect allergens in food samples. The iTube attachment uses the cell phone's built-in camera, along with an accompanying smart-phone application that runs a test with the same high level of sensitivity a laboratory would.

What are the benefits? This can make it easier for people with allergies eating out as they can test their food before eating it.
