Technological trends When medical, electronics, and biotechnology are developing rapidly and are closely integrated, many scenes in science fiction movies are constantly becoming reality, and "enhanced humans", "cyborg", "cyborgs", "biochemicals" "It's becoming a topic that is worth looking forward to in this era, and it's more or less worrying.
Recently, according to foreign media reports, the Swedish chip company BioHax is negotiating with a number of companies to provide microchip implantation services for employees of these companies to replace the currently used identity authentication cards. The price of each chip is 70-260 pounds.
This idea comes from the company's concern about plastic products and environmental pollution. At present, plastic products have become one of the important sources of environmental pollution. Currently, more than 6 billion plastic cards are produced annually worldwide.
BioHax was established in 2013 and hopes to use chip implants to minimize the use of plastic cards and key chains and other products, and help create a more green and environmentally friendly society. According to the company, the implanted chips provided by the company have been accepted by the Swedish national railway system to replace paper tickets. In addition, offices, national fitness facilities and other safe passages can be used.
At present, more than 4,000 people in Sweden have used implanted chips, which can be used as access control cards, tickets, cars, concerts, and exchange of personal social information through near field communication technology.
In addition, the company has provided chip implantation services to more than 1,000 professionals in finance, healthcare, government, science and technology in other countries.
Thanks to the miniaturization of sensors and the popularization of wireless communication, chip implantation is no longer a novelty. Many geeks have also tried to implant various electronic chips into the body to achieve various functions.
In 2016, Australian biohacker Meow-Meow took out the chip of the bus card and implanted it in his left thumb, which can be used to take public transportation.
In 2017, a company in the United States implanted chips for 50 employees to enter and exit the company, use photocopiers, log on to computers, etc.
In October of this year, Li Xueling, founder of the online live streaming platform Happy Time (YY), also implanted a chip in his arm to monitor physical indicators.
In scientific research and medical fields, implanted devices have long been popularized. Cochlear implants, cardiac pacemakers, nerve stimulators, artificial joints, and contraceptive rings are all implantable devices. In the future, more and more people will accept chip implants.
In the future, the function of the chip will be more powerful, which can be used for identity verification, payment, key, communication, sign monitoring, etc., which will make our life and work more convenient.
However, the popularity of biochip implantation needs to address psychological and safety issues. Hackers may invade these chips and steal personal information; the GPS positioning function of the chip may also disclose personal information.
From the Internet and the Internet of Things to the "I Network", we are on the road of "Internet of Everything". While the Internet of Everything brings more convenience and better predictability, we need to always pay attention to whether network security issues will occur in our own bodies.
