32-bit microcontrollers can now fit inside a dimple of a golf ball.
How long before a listening device that can be inserted into food and have the target eat it without noticing it's in there?
When they figure out how to protect delicate surveillance electronics from stomach acid.

That's not even a problem anymore, the colonoscopy camera in a pill seems to do it fine. The issues would be powering it and listening to conversations instead of mouth sounds and stomach noises.

light travels through transparent things
>>46783470
imbed it in a peanut
or hell, have the target eat hundreds of them, you only need one to work
>>46783524
No it doesn't

Light doesn't travel?
You still have to get it into people's food. If it was that easy to sneak things into food everyone would be dying from Ricin poisoning.
>>46783433
Good god you're an idiot. What happens when you eat something and it's not a usable food item to the body? YOU CRAP IT OUT. Take your tinfoil shit to /x/.
>>46783779
It will have a tiny hook that it will use to attach itself to the intestinal wall like a hookworm.
how long until every bic pen on earth has imbedded solar powered microcontrollers with listening devices built right in
>>46783433
>what is battery tech
>>46783813
Embedded you buffoon
>>46784323
In future, tiny robots will be able to hook into your blood stream and power itself from glucose.
>>46783667
Light isn't a particle therefore it doesn't move.
>>46783704
it's very easy to sneak things into food
>>46784362
thats not what I said bitch
>>46784406
>Light isn't a particle
Photons are particles.
>>46784447
s-settle down
>>46784466
photons aren't particles
>>46784406
wave propagation is traveling faggot
You're basically saying waves in the ocean dont move.
>>46784374
they have those they are called blood cells

>photons aren't particles
A photon is an elementary particle. It is a gauge boson along with the gluon, Z boson and W boson.
>>46784406
Light behaves as both a wave and a particle. Go back to high school.
more organ spying talk less nerd shit plz shut up about light
>>46784502
They would be if they said electrons.
>>46784502
>A photon is and isn't a particle
Physics doesn't have room for paradoxes. A photon is a particle. It may be a particle that also exhibits wave-like behaviour, but it's a particle.

How to get this down to below the size of a rice grain?
>>46784466
Light is definitely not a particle. Light is just a coupling of a changing magnetic and electric field. Where exactly does that particle bit come in to that?
>>46784539
No mass? No particle

You guys should collaborate on your paper that disproves the standard model. It'll be groundbreaking. I look forward to reading it, I was kind of disappointed when the LHC confirmed the Higgs Boson.

why not large, and uses fat instead?
offer them as subcutaneous fat burners that collect and transmit gps and audio data?

yes, a single particle can interfere with itself. HERP DERP
>>46784645
i'm imagining someone like that in a brainstorming session right now
it's making me smile
>>46784661
It doesn't matter how angry you get, a photon is a particle in the standard model.
>>46783779
actually, plastic microbeads do not get shit out so easily.
>>46784666
he doesnt get that innovation is trying out crazy stuff to avoid the 'natural fail' that he predicts
>>46784634
Fat has a very large viscosity, it would require the device to be relocated often.
>>46783433
>How long before a listening device that can be inserted into food and have the target eat it without noticing it's in there?
This could easily be abused in humorous ways.
>feed your tainted food to the neighborhood dogs, cats, squirrels, birds
>NSA starts wondering why there's hundreds of you
My thinking is that if something has no mass then no energy is required to travel (since there's no mass to propel), if there's no mass then they're free to move without the cost of energy and move at lightspeed, if it weren't for this universal limit then those particles/waves would travel at infinite speed.
>>46784735
If there's no energy to travel, where's the force?
>>46784406
lol, but photons are particles and waves.
Look at solar sails if you need proof.
>>46784708
>implying NSA wouldn't use proprietary encrypted communication over licensed bands (so that consumer devices can't pickup the signal)
>implying the devices wouldn't listen for a special NSA beacon and only start transmitting when the beacon is nearby to prevent detection
>>46784578
It really isn't a particle, it's a wave packet. It's not a point-like particle like the rest of the SM
>>46784374
like a parasite. a real life computer virus
>>46784735
Light doesn't have a mass but it has a momentum. Momentum and Mass are the same thing in theoretical physics because we set c=1.
>>46784834
It's a particle (a boson, to be exact). Whether it's a point like particle or not is nothing to do with it.
How can light exist if the world is an illusion?
>>46784964
>>46784964
If light doesn't move how do you see things happening at a distance?
>>46785019
>>46785266
Be quiet, illusions.
>>46784554
If light has no mass, how can it be attracted to black holes?
>>46785303
Spacetime is curved.
The straight path in that curved spacetime leads into the black hole.
>>46784542
I thought it was an established fact that light is both particle and wave?
>>46785535
It is. Look up "Photon" and "Boson" (the family of particles in which the Photons are categorized in by their behaviour).
>>46784480
Photon isn't matter it holds no protons or newtrons
>>46785535
The Electric and Magnetic fields are quantized through their dependence on a quantized scalar and vector potential. That unit of quantization is called a "photon".
Similarly, the Electron field is distributed spherically around an atom. But that Electron density is quantized (you can't have 1.3123 electrons), the unit of quantization is called an "electron".
All electrons are just excitations of the electron fermion field. All photons are just excitations of the photon boson field.
>>46786482
When we say wave and photon or a wave it's just a way to explain something we don't fully understand
>>46786269
A proton can actually be matter (not sure if it's considered matter or not), but it is massless.
>>46784559
To be fair, the waves-in-the-ocean analogy isn't entirely accurate.
>>46788087
To be fair, matter is defined as anything which occupies space and has mass, so light does not qualify as matter.
>>46788145
Edit: sorry just realized you said proton, not photon. Protons are generally regarded as matter.
