US Man Implants Car Key In Hand To His Unlock Tesla With A Simple Wave

28 Dec, 2019 06:52 AM

    Imagine being able to unlock doors or a car with just a wave of your hand. Well that's exactly what one Utah man can now do, thanks to some tech under his skin.

     

    Ben Workman has four computer chips embedded in his hands that allow him to perform different actions, from locking and unlocking his Tesla and the doors at his workplace, to logging into his computer and even sharing contact information.


    He has always been fascinated by technology and was eager to become a real-life cyborg as soon as the option became available, but he had trouble finding someone willing to perform the procedure at first. He was turned down by a veterinarian, a doctor and a piercing studio for his first two implants, so he eventually convinced a family member to do it.


    Having the small computer chips transplanted under the skin involves using a syringe to pop them out in the desired location, but the Tesla unlocking chip was a lot trickier so he had to convince a a piercing studio to help him. It wasn't the easiest thing to do, though.



    While the four chips in his hands are functional, Workman admits that he sometimes uses them to convince people who don't know about them that he has magic powers.


    "I play tricks on people who don't know I have it in my hand. I try and convince them a banana is the key and then I hold a banana up and the chip unlocks the door," the cybernetics buff said, adding that he also has a simple magnet embedded in his left hand specifically for "magic tricks and fun stuff."
