  • the range problems are mostly due to the antenna type. a better solution would be to implant a bio-safe coated flat tag like the ones being tested on dangerous things currently. they have a better read range. The only problem is that flat tags require going under knife rather than using an injection needle, but a larger…
  • Definitely follow the instructions. Higher percentage doesn't necessarily mean stronger. I forgot where I read it, but I read an explanation that stated that some of the lower percentage Iso is more effective. It has something to do with evaporation rate or something (?) I think. I'd need to re-research it, its been a…
  • I thought all the haworth's use an injection molded silicon coating (?) But if it is TiN then shoot, I don't know anything about how bleach would effect it. Just checked his link and it is silicon coating. I'd still wait for a second opinion though, there may sill be a chemistry aspect i'm missing. I also realized you were…
  • I wouldn't use Iso or boiling for sanitation. Use bleach. Its stronger and more effective. I doubt that the boiling point of water is enough to damage the magnet, but I've heard that heat can weaken or even kill these magnets, so bleach is definitely a safe bet. I'd also like to ask if you think you really need the…
  • I'm from Utah. Sorry about posting multiple comments in a row like that, I wasn't really thinking about it. I can see how it'd be annoying to see this thread look like it's more active than it is with unnecessary posts. I'll DM you my slack in a minute, I don't use it as much, but I have notifications set up and i'm pretty…
  • Okay, I just read the FDA document as well as the documents and posts here regarding toxicity and different coatings. I'm just waiting to hear back from you.
  • Ah, I just googled and found the 10993-1 FDA document about "evaluation and testing within a risk management process". I will begin reading that now.
  • I'd love to help, but I'm not sure where I'd be of use. I have a highschool level of education with two semesters of colledge (before I dropped out). I took just about every science class you can think of in highschool and I'm an excellent reader. I need to brush up on chemistry and biology for sure, but some specific…
  • @Cassox Oh cool! Man, you're always on top of things here!
  • If experimental loca lenses work, and I can get away with the light input side being planar, then I could carefully /in theory/ make a lense directly on the surface of the LCD and worry less about optic mounting structures in the design.
  • Got those lenses and some loca. Going to run experiments soon
  • Okay. I'm trying to focus on research and testing for part A: output. I'm thinking my best bet is a round LCD (like some smart watches use) adapted with an optical lense to shorten the focal viewpoint so it can rest as close to the eye as possible. I know that cheap vr headsets use optic lenses to make phone screens…
  • Very interesting, I didn't know any of that. I guess I lack the knowledge relevant to the conversation. I was going off the assumption that rejection was still a major issue because most limb/organ replacements/transplants I know about have been donor transplants from the deceased (like with Zion Harvey). From my…
  • Kid's name was Zion Harvey btw. Here is the first article I found after googling him. https://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/video/zion-harvey-does-push-ups-one-year-after-double-hand-transplant-749373507618
  • I honestly feel like the biggest problem with trying to graft new nerves into your body for any reason, like say a new arm for an amputee, would be rejection. There are some small advancements (kid was on the news a few months ago, I think, for world's first successful full hand transplant). I mean, even if we could find a…
  • I'll try to record something in the morning (mountan time, western us)
  • I don't think that's quite the issue... After some trial and error (and taking my headphones out) I found that if I hold my thumb at a 45° angle I can somewhat consistently replicate the effects and there is a physical sound like a faint popping or chirping as I scroll up coming from the contact point on the screen. Mind…
  • I've heard of people taking nerve growth hormone to increase magnet implant effectiveness but I don't know if it's entirely possible to map out entirely new nerve tracks for things like say, a new limb like a tail, or for cyborg integration.
  • okay. I think I found the problem after some more perusing around on the dangerous things forum. My pn532 is almost definitely a knock off (bought it cheap on amazon) should be able to read it with a better reader. Here is the post I found: https://forum.dangerousthings.com/t/xnt-can-only-be-read-with-android-nfc/112/10 I…
  • No, i didn't have a chance to check it before hand. I didn't want to risk contamination so it went straight from the injector into my hand. What are the chances it's a dud? I was led to believe dangerous things was a reputable company that quality checks all their products, I mean, i expect quality out of a $100 tag.
  • I just got a 125 khz reader and my implant is working great! Swelling was definitely present as I can now find a faint outline. Sadly my implant isn't exactly in the best position possible (good distance from index metacarpal, but at a slight angle and a bit higher than I wanted), but there is no pain and everything is…
  • thank you so much! I've been paranoid all day so hearing that helps a lot!
  • shame your experimental magnet failed McSTUFF, that scar tissue piece looked pretty gnarly. surprised that radioactive batteries are smaller than I first assumed, too bad they can't do much. In terms of 'wireless' or contact charging I think it would be interesting to see how far you could go with something like the…
