Michigan Tesla owner Brandon Dalaly had a chip implanted in his hand to replace his car keys. According FOX 2 in Detroit, this is second time Dalaly has had a chip implanted. After the procedures, Brandon's left hand opens the front and back doors of his home, and his right opens and starts his Tesla. His first implant also allows him to tap someone's phone with his hand and share his contact info, his portfolio, and his COVID vaccine card.
Dalaly told FOX 2 that he's always been a tech enthusiast and wanted to be on the cutting edge of technology. Brandon says the procedure is affordable and doesn't even require medical supervision:
"The chips themselves are around $200 to $300 and the install is only about $100 because you can go to a local piercing shop who will agree to do the installation," he said. "All the programming and coding putting the apps on the chips - that’s all done by me."
He says his next implant would be inserted into his chest and would allow him to tap his phone and instantly check his body temperature.
