A Sydney woman, and self-described futurist, has become among the first in Australia to experience a radical body modification, which could soon be mainstream.
WARNING – CONTAINS IMAGES OF GRAPHIC MEDICAL PROCEDURE
Shanti Korporaal had two small microchip implants inserted into her hands earlier this year, allowing her to use her hands to control electronic devices. It might sound a little out-there, but�Korporaal and other futurists like her say, this is what the future will look like.
Speaking to news.com.au, Ms�Korporaal says she now doesn’t have to carry keys or any cards to get into her vehicle or her place of work. Smart technology means that unlocking keycard access doors is as simple as swiping her hand across the sensor. She told news.com.au:
“You could set up your life so you never have to worry about any password or PINs.”

Ms Korporaal’s vision of the future�includes the microchips being engineered to that a person could pay for items with them too, using similar technology as the widely popular Paypass.
According to supporters the chips can be programmed to contain complex information, including medical data, and can even transfer an individual’s contact information to mobile devices.
With all that they can do already, and all the potential for the future, it’s no surprise that these microchips are getting a lot of attention.�Ms�Korporaal and her husband have set up a distribution service for the chips in Australia called “Chip My Life”. The implants cost between $80-$140, are the size of a grain of rice, and take less then a few minutes to insert.
