This is from my shop. We are working on some pretty cool stuff. I am running the camera.
It does take about 3 minutes to download. Click Here |

That is friggin cool man! Im not sure Im ready for a chip at this point but when I am Im heading your way. So what does the setup run to allow the remote start etc with the RFID in hand?

Very cool, and a bit spooky at the same time.
I recall reading about this technology a few years ago, on a email subscription that I've since lost, (RCFOC- Rapidly Changing Face of Computing), that IIRC was being develpoed in Puyallup WA. It was presented in a somewhat pessimistic form, indicating the privacy risk implications of course. The way I remember it, it was intended to be used in office buildings and such, to provide security in a keyless environment. It also went in to retina scans, bluetooth, and such, but my memory isn't good enough to give much detail. This is a pretty cool application though. I need to figure on getting set up with a remote starter for my next rig.... 1GR has it and I've always thought it would be ideal for warming up the rig in the mornings. |

meh.... been starting the rigs without a key or a starter for years, it does require parking on a hill though overwise you have to push real hard and jump in the rig real quick.

Monday morning they had a guy on the Bob Rivers show talking about just that technology and I think that Bob got chipped during the show.
www.bobrivers.com/audiovault/showclips/clipsbydate.asp Bob gets microchipped! Aired 3/27/2006 Doc shows up to microchip Bob... will he do it? Aired 3/27/2006 |

I must have one of those chips mysteriously implanted in my hand also.
Because a certain something springs into action as soon as I rub my hand over it |
|
No fucking way.
Anyone want to guess what Strat's reply will be? |
|
That is Amal, he was at the shop today. We are doing his car next week, Bob Rivers the week after. |

It was the most fun vehicle I have ever driven but so impractical that it had to go, I replaced it with a new Xterra SE Super Black package that I really like, do you do suspension work on those?
|
|
We need a picture of Bob with the Bear or how about a discount if Kaci comes down to have her photo taken with the bear and flips her good buddy R-32 a "friendly" salute? |
||
|
I will see if I can get Bob to pose with the Bear. |

|
DVR set! |
|
|
Some of those who haven't been around that long may not know what you are talking about. Should we dig up the archive threads? |
|
|
Please tell me you are wearing your TEAM ARFCOM shirt..... |
|
|
I meant about Kaci and R-32. |

|
Is this going to air tonight? |
|
|
I bet he'll say something like this
What do I win? |
||
|
Not sure, they just called and should be here by 7:30pm. |
||
|
They just got done interviewing Ben. It will be on between 10-11pm tonight (03-30-06) on Channel 13.
ETA: Someone PLEASE TIVO it. Thanks. |
|
I can DVR it, but I don't know how much good that would do ya |
|

Very impressive.
Still, he had to enter the vehicle to use the 'kill switch'... It reminds me of the automated sinks...or toilets...that come on or flush whether you want them too or not. You might be picking your nose or looking for spinach in your teeth, but the damn faucet starts spewing water whether you want it to or not...sometimes rather spasmodically. Quite amusing and irritating at the same time. Just a few steps away from '666'. |
|
They made you stay that late at the shop for that lame segment?
Give me an email address and I'll get the file to you. |
|
Pretty cool stuff, I'd probably want the chip in a ring or watch band before I implanted it in my skin.
The chick on the news wonders if one can play music on the chip in your hand |
|
Thats ok. 3 phone calls out to the other networks, supposed to talk to King 5 Tomorrow. This stuff is gonna be big.
I am working on an application that ALL of US could use in our houses. |
|
I talked to a coworker today about this, I told him he could use it when he goes scuba diving, he'd not have to worry about losing his keys in the sound.
|
|
So how did you answer yourself? |
|
|
When I want the right answer I ask myself! |
||
|
Got interviewed by Komo4 and King5 today. Komo interview should be on on Sunday, the King 5 deal will be on Kong at 10 and King 5 at 11.
|
|
You did or Ben did? |
|
|
Both. |

|
"gunsafe" and "blow you away" in the same quote on tv!!!
gotta be a good way to edit that |
|
stuntcock HELL! stunt cock and media whore!!!!!!!!! ETA-"To get into my gunsafe", nice touch. |
|
|
Yes it was. I have to think it was because of the amazing coverage from King5/Kong6/NWCN2. I have received dozens of emails today from the 15+ airings on the King networks. |
