Chipped Human

at 3:27 pm. Filed under Human Hacks, What Were They Thinking

Mikey Sklar is braver than me, he had a RFID chip implanted into his hand. These chips have a variety of purposes from tracking inventory to access control. They are routinely injected into animals to identify them if they are lost but it is not common for them to be installed in a human!

Here is what Amal has to say about the subject, ” DIY RFID human implants are on the rise. I have found over sixteen instances of midnight engineers implanting RFID tags in their hands. The general excuse is for automation purposes. Examples such as unlocking a computer screen saver or opening doors that have been outfitted with electric deadbolts. In my own case the idea of implanting technology that I have researched and spec’d out was very appealing. The fact that it can actually do something useful is quite secondary. The most rewarding part of this project was learning about RFID at a much deeper level. ”

Take a look at Amal’s article and watch the video of the operation.

    Actually, it is more common than you might think, South and Central American businessmen, lawyers, and judges are GPS and RFID chips implanted so that they can be located in the case of abduction.

    There are lots of questions regarding to privacy.

    On the other hand….

    When an ambulance found someone, unconscious with no usual ID (Yup it must be in my other jacket), it could give them very vital info.

    But.. I’d be cautious when banks would want such an ID. A guy with three or more hands might try to get some money at the wall ;-)
