Biochips are small devices that can be implanted under the skin that contain electronic circuits and antennas. They are used for identification and can store personal information that is transmitted to readers. A biochip has a microchip, antenna coil, capacitor, and glass capsule. It receives and transmits signals to a reader that displays the unique identification number. Biochips have advantages like being small, fast, and able to store multiple types of personal data. They could potentially serve as credit cards, driver's licenses, and passports in the future with all information contained on one implanted chip.

3. INTRODUCTION
o Identifies us uniquely.
o Size–uncooked grain of rice.
o Can be used to track our local. Fig: Biochip
o Injected under the skin using syringe.
o Respond to signal from detector.
o Daniel Man holds the patent for a chip that
can be tracked by satellite.

4. Definition of biochip
 Collection of micro arrays arranged on a
solid substrate.
 Can perform thousand of biological
operation.
 Human Genome Project.
 Increased speed of identification of gene.
 Also used in toxicological, protein
&biochemical research.

5. Pictures of Biochip

6. Structure And Working
 Two parts- Transponder & Reader or
Scanner.
Transponder:
• Uses RFID system.
• Not harmful to
human body. Fig: Component of Biochip
• Actual biochip implant.
• Four parts: Microchip, Antenna Coil,
Capacitor & Glass Capsule.

7. Controls our Brain

8. Microchips:
• Stores unique identification number, 10-15
digit.
• ID number etched to surface.
• Cannot be altered.
• AVID stores 70 trillion unique numbers.
• Electronic circuitary transmit ID number to
reader

9.  Antenna Coil:
• Copper around ferrite or iron core.
• Simple , tiny, primitive.
• Receives and sends signals from the reader
or scanner.
Tuning Capacitor:
• Stores small electrical charges(<1/1000 of
a watt)
• Tuned to same frequency as reader.

10. Glass Capsule:
• Houses all components.
• Made of biocompatible material.
• Polypropylene sheath.
• Injected using hypodermic syringe.
Fig: Biochip & Syringe

11. Reader or Scanner
• Exciter coil provides energy activate chip.
• Receiving coil receives data.
• Displayed in LCD.
• All done in milliseconds.
Working :
• Enables biochip. Fig: Reader & Scanner
• Receiver amplifies code.
• Generates low power electromagnetic field.
• Data displayed.

12. Development and Working
Brain ON-OFF Switch
• Turn around brain signal.
• Primarliy interfere with
abberate brain function.
• Uses high frequency electric
purpose.
• Active implant –

13. Adding Sound to life
• Cochlear implant.
• Mimics the job of hair cell.
• Splits incoming noises
into a number to channels.
• Succesful cochlear implant
• “Clarian & Nucleus”.
Fig: Adding Sound to life

14. DNA Biochips
• Gene probe based.
• Matched box sized.
• No radioactive labels.
• Reduces disposal cost.
• Distinguish b/w bacteria,
virus,chemical or biological
species. Fig: DNA Biochip
• Tuan Vo-Dinhn-at DOE of ORNL.
• Less blood, no sacrifice on accuracy.

15. Advantages
• Small in size.
• Faster & Powerful.
• Detect miltiple viral agent in parallel.
• Aids deaf ,dumb,blind.
• Stores personnal data.
• Ease of use.
• Human tracking etc…

16. Future
• A chip implanted some where in human body
might serve as a combination of
1.Credit card
2.Driving license
3.Passport
4.Personal identification etc…
• No longer would it be needed to worry
about losing all above thing.

17. Conclusion
• Developing of Biochips are on the way.
• Have advantages
• Future is unpredictable.
