Former DARPA director Wants You to Swallow ID Microchips

Former DARPA director and now Google executive, Regina Dugan, is promoting an edible “authentication microchip” and an electronic tattoo that can read your mind.

“This pill has a small chip inside of it with a switch,” said Dugan. “It also has what amounts to an inside out potato battery. When you swallow it, the acids in your stomach serve as the electrolyte and that powers it up. And the switch goes on and off and creates an 18 bit ECG wide signal in your body and essentially your entire body becomes your authentication token.”
