Applied Digital Solutions has developed a new technology that they believe will revolutionize E-Business security, emergency location and medical monitoring and commodities supply chain management (food safety). That technology has been named Digital Angel (TM).

The idea behind the initial version of Digital Angel is to build a microchip that can be worn close to the body. This microchip will include biosensors that will measure the biological parameters of the body and store this information.

It will also have an antenna that will receive signals from GPS satellites. The geographic location of the chip can be derived from these signals. The antenna also communicates with ground stations. It will receive commands from the stations and will send the biological information and location data to the ground station. This could take the form of a distress signal sent to a monitoring facility when the unit detects a medical emergency.

...

Digital Angel measures bodily parameters. It does not interact with the body chemically or biologically. Designed to be completely harmless, Digital Angel will not interfere with bodily functions in any way.

Imagine a Digital Angel that did interfere with bodily functions. I certainly wouldn't want it to be controlled a Microsoft OS in that case ;-)
