A tiny chip implanted into Brandon Dalaly's hand is all the tech enthusiast now needs to unlock his Tesla.
The chip which is contactless and covered in a bio-compatible substance was implanted into Dalaly's hand by a professional piercer as part of a beta test. The company that organised the test also has its own app store where you can download different apps and wirelessly install them into the chip.
This is the second chip that Dalaly has implanted, previously getting a chip that would unlock his house and store his personal information.
Dalaly shared the journey of getting the chip implanted on Twitter.

Finally decided to take my phone key issues in to my own hands... literally. Tesla key chip implant. pic.twitter.com/RVK8ZaePoI
The entire process, including the cost of the procedure and the chip, cost him $400.
