Tomorrow, at 20:00, Vlad Zaitsev, an enthusiast of biohacker implants, will speak on our social networks.
Now Vlad himself has three chips implanted right into his hand: a Rocketbank card with which he can pay for purchases and two passes to the office (there are two access control systems in the building) in order to save time getting his wallet.
Vlad and his team have been implanting chips into people for 5 years as a hobby. It began when he, while still a student, stumbled upon chip implantation kits sold by a guy from the United States named Amal Graafstr. The cheapest one cost $ 50 and Vlad decided to try to do everything himself.
The Troika card was the first implanted chip, and this caused a resonance in the media: the story was quickly picked up by city newspapers because of the clear and catchy headline.
Where did this chip story come from?
Amal originally traded in animal chips. There is such a thing, Europetnet, an international veterinary base. Used, in particular, for communication with the owners of lost animals. Chips are placed at the withers of dogs and cats, its serial numbers, nicknames, age, diseases, contacts of the owners, and so on are entered into the database.
Then Amal gradually switched to chips compatible with access control systems.
How common is it and the core of the party
In total, the guys implanted several hundred chips.
Hangout tehnoentuziastov called Russian Implanted Electronics (chat telegram ProImplantedElectronics ), which consists mainly of children from Moscow and Novosibirsk. You can also order a chip from Vlad there.
There are also several foreigners in the chat: for example, a Pole who actively participates in the discussion. The guys make an implant for him with a bank card, and he will put it somewhere at home.
Technology in Brief - What is RFID?
RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) is the collective name for all so-called near-field communication technologies.
For example, long-distance communication, when people talk on a walkie-talkie at a distance of a kilometer. By the same principle - mobile communication, only several phones at once within a radius of a couple of hundred meters connect to one cell.
And in RFID, despite the name, in fact, there is no radio. This is a short-range communication, when some mark transmits and receives something at a very short distance - from a centimeter to several meters. However, it is passive, there is no battery.
Data transmission takes place using an alternating magnetic field, as in a transformer. It is more inductive than radio. This allows you to do cool things, for example, power the RFID tag with the same field through which the signal is transmitted.
The chip in the tag consumes very little. With the help of the antenna, he receives enough energy from the reader to turn on and do something.
The same system is used in bank cards. They not only have a built-in chip, but also have a rather powerful processor with a JAVA interpreter, with a cryptomodule. It provides security for banking transactions. And all this works from an external field.
How legal is it, how exactly is the chip implanted, what exactly can be implanted?
Vlad will tell all this live, and also answer your questions - write what you would be interested to hear in the comments.
In addition to the technical part, Vlad will talk about interesting cases: for example, about the implantation of magnetic implants into the fingertips, namely into the distal phalanx, where there are a lot of nerve endings.
They allow you to feel magnetic fields with your fingers: for example, by touching the refrigerator, determine where the compressor motor is located, find the pump in the coffee maker, the choke in the computer's power supply.
Such implants even allow moving light metal objects on the table and very quickly integrate new abilities into the brain - after a while, the sensation of a magnetic field passes into the subconscious, bypassing conscious signal processing: how the habitual ability to hear sounds or smell smells works unconsciously.
Short speech plan:
- How it all started
- Technology: what is RFID
- What chips do the guys have now
- Glass chips: what are they made of, where are they used, what are they good for?
- Magnetic implants
- Custom implants
- What's the future of implantation?
- Funny stories from practice
- How I implanted a Rocketbank card
- Religion and how they tried to beat me on the radio for the mark of the beast
In addition, you can ask Vlad a question here in the comments.
