    RFID ink product could track humans
    by Antony Savvas
    Thursday 11 January 2007


    A US company has launched a chip-less RFID (radio frequency identification) ink that can be used to track both animals and people. Visible or invisible ink “tatoos” can be applied to the skin and tracked by RFID readers positioned a few feet away. The company, Somark, said it had successfully tested its Biocompatible Chipless RFID Ink product on cattle and laboratory rats and proved the “efficacy of injecting and reading a ‘tattoo’ within the skin of animals”.

    The technology will be used initially in the livestock industry to help identify and track cattle, and help mitigate export trade loss from BSE scares. Secondary target markets include laboratory animals, dogs and cats, prime cuts of meat and military personnel, according to the company. Ramos Mays, Somark chief scientist, said, “This proves the ability to create a synthetic biometric or fake fingerprint with Biocompatible Chipless RFID Ink and read it through hair.”

    Invisible RFID Ink Safe For Cattle And People, Company Says
    The process developed by Somark involves a geometric array of micro-needles and an ink capsule, which is used to 'tattoo' an animal. The ink can be detected from 4 feet away.

    A startup company developing chipless RFID ink has tested its product on cattle and laboratory rats. Somark Innovations announced this week that it successfully tested biocompatible RFID ink, which can be read through animal hairs. The passive RFID technology could be used to identify and track cows to reduce financial losses from Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (mad cow disease) scares. Somark, which formed in 2005, is located at the Center for Emerging Technologies in St. Louis. The company is raising Series A equity financing and plans to license the technology to secondary markets, which could include laboratory animals, dogs, cats, prime cuts of meat, and military personnel.

    Chief scientist Ramos Mays said the tests provide a true proof-of-principle and mitigate most of the technological risks in terms of the product's performance. "This proves the ability to create a synthetic biometric or fake fingerprint with biocompatible, chipless RFID ink and read it through hair," he said. Co-founder Mark Pydynowski said during an interview Wednesday that the ink doesn't contain any metals and can be either invisible or colored. He declined to say what is in the ink, but said he's certain that it is 100% biocompatible and chemically inert. He also said it is safe for people and animals.

    interesting times for sure!



    Edit to add: And many folks (not us here) use to say this technology alone would NEVER be possible.

    VERY VERY interesting. Dr Ed Hindson (I hope I am correct in my memory. if I am wrong I'm sorry) believes firmly that the MOB is absolutely VISIBLE to all. (not under the skin and hidden)

    He said that if you translate the word "mark", it's meaning is a visible mark.

    YIKES!

    Oh Dr Ed Hindson is awesome.. here is his site:

    Looks like this could merge the "chip" with the "mark" in time for the AC to show up. :woah:

    Avoid this chip or mark as if it's the plague. The reward Jesus will bestoy upon one for being faithful will have no end. Human eyes have not seen it, nor ears have heard it. One cold not begin to imagine it. :bliss
