Nanotechnology Dermal Display
Tuesday, May 23rd, 2006I have always been a huge fan of anything technological, and this just takes the cake and eats it all.
The possibiltes of using a dermal display are endless. For example, you can use it for displaying your vital medical information such as blood type, heart rate, medical conditions, what medication if any you are on. You can also use it as an embedded MP3 player, a mini computer (PDA) or even a satelite naigation system.
I am also pretty sure that it will have military applications aswell, such as recieving intel and up to date maps of the enemy terrain.
Where will our technological advancment end?
GILLETTE’s spy shelf photographs CUSTOMERS!!
Monday, May 22nd, 2006Welcome to the world of Big Brother.
Unsuspecting people are havign there photo taken when purchasing Gillette razor blades from British super-markets.
For full details read here
There are a few options on avoiding this. Firstly, stop buying Gillette products at the super-market, secondly, you can fight back.
You can use a small magnet to interfere with the RFID tag which will stop it working, or you can get your very own RFID tag from RSA that will stop it taking a photo. Personally, I would rather see them off the shelves as this is an invasion of privacy for those who are actually buying them and not stealing them.
There are better ways to prevent theft, and it does not involve taking my god damn picture just because I need new blades.
Who in there right mind allowed this to be put into production?
