Apparently, there is a 29 year old male entrepeneur Amal Graafstra living in Canada who has had RFID tags implanted into his hand.
With the use of these tags, Graafstra is able to open his front door using one chip. Using another chip, he can even log onto his computer.
Graafstra feels that RFID technology is perfect for him, because he “does not want to be without access to things that he needs to get into”. He feels having a chip implanted into his skin will still allow him to enter his house even after his keys and clothes have been stolen.
The chips are quite affordable costing only $2 and interact with computers and other electronic devices. The reader for these chips usually run about $50 which is inexpensive for this type of technology.
This is just one of many uses for humans being tagged with RFID, other uses can be seen especially in the banking and healthcare industries.
