Sniper Rifle that implants GPS microchips- on sale since 2002 !
Empire North, located in Copenhagen, Denmark, has introduced a new law enforcement tool called an ID Sniper Rifle™.
According to their marketing material, the ID Sniper Rifle™ is used to implant a GPS-microchip in the body of a human being, using a high powered sniper rifle as the long distance injector. This micro chip enters the body and remains there without causing any internal damage. The manufacturer says the process brings little physical pain as the micro chip enters the body of an unsuspecting human, similiar to a mosquito bite lasting just a fraction of a second. At the same time this occurs, a digital camcorder with a zoom-lense fitted within the scope will being to take a high-resolution picture of the target. The target in this case is a human being.
Empire North maintains that law enforcement need this rifle
“As the urban battlefield grows more complex and intense, new ways of managing and controlling crowds are needed. The attention of the media changes the rules of the game. Sometimes it is difficult to engage the enemy in the streets without causing damage to the all important image of the state. Instead EMPIRE NORTH suggests to mark and identify a suspicious subject on a safe distance, enabeling the national law enforcement agency to keep track on the target through a satellite in the weeks to come.”
Empire North has been showing this new rifle for law enforcement from Bejiing, China in 2002 to New York City in April 2004. The company markets products for the “modern urban battlefield.” Empire North also markets a product called “JuJu the Citizen Eye.” This little camera is designed to photograph suspicious activity and immediately be able to transmit it to the Ministry of Homeland Security.
