The Verichip
Verichip utilizes the implantable, passive RFID microchip, in their solutions for the purpose of automatic identification. About the size of a grain of rice, the microchip inserts just under the skin and contains only a unique, 16-digit identifier. In the future this chip may contain Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking capabilities. And unlike conventional forms of identification, the VeriChip™ cannot be lost, stolen, misplaced, or counterfeited. It is considered safe, secure, and will always be with you. Once inserted just under the skin, via a quick, outpatient procedure (much like getting a shot), the VeriChip™ can be scanned when necessary with a proprietary VeriChip reader, whether handheld or wall-mounted. A small amount of radio frequency energy passes from the reader energizing the dormant microchip which then emits a radio frequency signal transmitting the individuals unique verification number. This number can then be used for such purposes as accessing personal medical information in a password-protected database or assessing whether somebody has authority to enter into a high-security area. VeriChip has now been approved to offer an implantable FDA approved RFID microchip.
