Pragmatic Semiconductor created one as part of their research work. It continues to work when wrapped around a pen.
Flex-RX processor (based on RISC-V architecture) is the world's first 32-bit flexible microprocessor that retains full functionality in a bendable state. It also has some built-in machine learning capabilities.
The Flex-RV builds on Pragmatic's previous developments in flexible electronics, namely the FlexPCB (flexible printed circuit board) and FlexIC (flexible integrated circuits) made using IZGO thin-film transistor technology. The processors are less than 80 µm thick including the PCB, consume less than 6 mW of power and offer exceptional flexibility and affordability. Test samples contain 12,600 logic gates and have average and maximum clock speeds of 52 kHz and 60 kHz, respectively.

Harvard students taught Meta smartglasses to collect passersby's personal data
Harvard University students have opened Pandora's Box by connecting Ray-Ban Stories smart glasses to facial recognition and public databases. The result is the ultimate spy device.
They called their invention I-XRAY and conducted “field tests” on strangers. They checked the data they received against the passersby themselves. The glasses found their names, ages, phone numbers and insurance polic
