Information on VeriChipT (http://www.4verichip.com)
===================================================
The VeriChip miniaturized Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Device is
the core of all VeriChip applications. About the size of a grain of rice,
each VeriChip contains a unique verification number, which can be used to
access a subscriber-supplied database providing personal related
information. And unlike conventional forms of identification, VeriChip
cannot be lost, stolen, misplaced or counterfeited.
Once implanted just under the skin, via a quick, painless outpatient
procedure (much like getting a shot), the VeriChip can be scanned when
necessary with a proprietary VeriChip scanner. A small amount of Radio
Frequency Energy passes from the scanner energizing the dormant VeriChip,
which then emits a radio frequency signal transmitting the individuals
unique verification (VeriChipID) number. The VeriChip Subscriber Number then
provides instant access to the Global VeriChip Subscriber (GVS) Registry -
through secure, password protected web access to subscriber-supplied
information.
