Of course, that doesn’t make it any less painful to endure, especially when you’re running late for your flight and you arrive at a security line that stretches as far as the eye can see.

The good news is that progress is being made that could speed up the security screening process in the future, while also making air travel far more secure.

The five-person firm is developing two products, intended to work together for commitment-phobic tattoo recipients. The first is a new kind of tattoo ink that is designed to break down and disappear after roughly a year. The second is a removal solution, which a tattoo artist can use to trace over the tattoo and make it go away even sooner.

The company’s CEO and co-founder, Seung Shin, explained that the company had its genesis in a tattoo he got on his arm that didn’t sit well with his family.
