A Michigan man got the key to his Tesla implanted into his hand.
Brandon Dalaly shared his procedure on Twitter. A microchip was implanted into his hand at a tattoo and piercing parlor. Now, by waving his hand with the chip in between his forefinger and thumb in front of the door, his car will unlock. Once inside the car, he’s able to start it.
“Finally decided to take my phone key issues in to my own hands… literally,” Dalaly captioned his video. “Tesla key chip implant.”

Dalaly tagged Tesla CEO Elon Musk in his tweet, but Musk did not respond.
This is Dalaly’s second chip, with his first including his house key and medical information including his vaccination status. It glows green when being scanned.
The chip will likely have to be upgraded and reinserted. There is an alternative payment method in the form of a microchip that gets implanted that nearly 200 people have already, according to Walletmor, a British-Polish company. Its chip expires anywhere between three and eight years, depending on the account that it’s linked to, and must be replaced.

Three Square Market was the first U.S.-based company to offer its employees similar microchips in 2017, allowing employees access to certain restricted areas.
