RFID Implantation Project
On April 30, 2005, I had two RFID chips implanted, one in each of my forearms. They are 13x13mm glass ampoules containing read-only 125kHz EM4102 chips.
A bit more than a year later, in June of 2006 I secured a lot of 10 12x12mm, 224-bit read-write 125kHz Q5 implants from an overseas source, and implanted two, one into the webbing between the thumb and first finger of each of my hands.
The Q5 chips are compatible with all ISO FDX B readers. The EM4102 chips are apparently not, though they are compatible with both the Phidget RFID USB reader and the Parallax reader, both of which are listed are working with the EM Microelectronics-Marin SA EM4100-series RFID tags.
I'm currently searching for a programmable reader module suitable for interfacing with a BASIC stamp or Arduino board that can read both Q5 and EM4100-series chips, and preferably write Q5 chips. My best bet so far would seem to be the hardware from the RFIDIOt.org project, but yow, it's expensive.
