DataDot Personal DNA Kit

Juniper Foo | Mar 28, 2006

The next time your office buddy swipes your stationary again, there's a way to prove it. DataDog's Personal DNA Kit lets you DNA your valuables by painting microdots on just about anything, from cell phones to jewelry, making your possessions too hot too handle for thieves. Each DataDot is the size of a salt grain, and comes permanently laser-etched with 50 characters of information. Registering on DataDots' secure Web site establishes ownership quickly, and makes your tagged items traceable by police and insurers. You'll need ultraviolet or black light to scan for the microdot, and a scope with 50x magnification to read the data. Small hassle when your colleague doesn't know what hit him. Love the spy tech.
