Could you electroplate titanium onto a magnet?

@amal

@Az_F

What I wonder is why we can’t keep going with this process until there’s a sufficient coat of that alone. Too slow? Too uneven? Can’t build up multiple layers?

Again, high temps… but also it’s not a hermetic seal. The particles do not bond together well at the atomic level, they just mash together, but that does not keep water out and bodily fluids will eventually attack it. This is exactly what we tried with the m31… check the video about “DT isn’t doing magnets anymore”… I cover a lot in there… and rest assured I spent tens of thousands of dollars working on magnet designs and coatings that all failed.

That’s not to say that more research shouldn’t be done. Titan is discontinued because of the expensive process to make it. Nearly all of the suppliers involved raised prices considerably to the point I couldn’t see making another batch… so research needs to continue.

I assume the hermetic seal argument is the same here?

I did some googling after I spitballed, apparently titanium doesn’t play nicely with electroplating processes

@ThePolishedTurd

I have to wonder if it is possible to use magnetron sputtering deposition?

I’ve gone through pvd, cvd, ald, and a few other methods of laying down titanium and titanium nitride, and it’s all imperfect for various reasons.

Sorry to hijack this thread but just had a random thought. Anyone remember the Phantom Eight characters from NCIS who had rfid implants allowing them access to any military facility in the world?

@amal you weren’t co-writer on that show were you?

@Az_F

Trying to setup vivokey in Unity’s Authentification (Player Accounts) plugin…

I assume the client ID is the one I get in the vivokey app by creating a custom app as per the docs

Not sure if the two other fields are just arbitrary names or something specific though. Any ideas?

Edit: this is vaguely helpful , kinda : OpenID Connect

I’m going to assume I can put “oidc-vivokey” and " https://api.vivokey.com/openid/"

Edit: nope, says Invalid oicd parameter

it’s not worth doing imho at this point because the current core is getting shut down… the new API is basically feature complete at this point, and i’m going to be having some talks about building out a new IdP with OIDC and SSO/SAML

[Az_F]

Noted, I’ll put this on hold then. It’s not on the priority list for now , I just wanted to familiarize myself.

Oh and another random thought, the problem of powering implants. Well what about a kinetic clutch that charges a capacitor? Would work better if placed in arm due to range of motion .

[hadoukenboy628]

Sorry, I didnt mean to hijack you.

[hadoukenboy628]

Or a mini capacitor that charges off being read. If the xsiid can harvest energy to an led then surely it can harvest it for storage to a capacitor?

[Hamspiced]

Can’t derail a derailment thread. I think there are issues with implanting capacitors. I can’t give the specifics but I’m sure someone here can.

[amal]

Generally speaking it’s technically possible but practically impractical … capacitors lose charge so quickly through internal leakage that it’s not really all that viable for most things people want to do with powered implants… and mechanical components are large and … mechanical ew haha

[Pilgrimsmaster]

obviously bullshit, but thought I would share anyway

Fact Check: World Economic Forum Did NOT State CBDC Chips Must Be 'Implanted...

@hadoukenboy628

If the xsiid can harvest energy to an led then surely it can harvest it for storage to a capacitor?

Yup it can. What do you want to do with that energy though? The strength of capacitors is that they can charge and discharge very quickly, unlike a chemical battery. Unfortunately their energy density is poor, and they lose voltage very quickly as they discharge, also unlike a chemical battery.

Here’s a breakdown I did for someone who asked this before.

LED/glowing microchip?

@FastBlinker Yeah, I like that idea too! Here is the highest Farad capacitor (200mF) I could find with a Z-height that was remotely possible for implantation (1.4mm). If the LED is running at ~3V, the math for how long it would last would look like this: Farad = Coulombs/Volt (200mF) = Coulombs/(3V) Coulombs = 0.6 Amp-hours = Coulombs/Seconds in an Hour Amp-hours = (0.6)/(3600) Amp-hours = ~167μAh If a tiny LED required 15mA to reach full brightness, that means it would last: 167μAh/15…

[hadoukenboy628]

I had a five minute conversation with myself and the only use i could come to is also a permanently on led lol. Im having wild impractical ideas about subdermal gpio boards. Oh well was good to hash it out with like minded people.

[Hamspiced]

maybe an accelerometer that only lets the capacitor discharge with a large force is done, so it looks like youre releasing your charged mega karate chop

[Az_F]

@hadoukenboy628

You wouldn’t get much more than a few seconds out of a capacitor. With a 25mm li ion coin cell you can get 24h with a ~15 min charge. Including the wireless charging, battery and led and coating it would be a 27mm * 5mm disc.
If you’re willing to implant a battery that is, which has been done before, successfuly. Failure rate on coin cells is close to 0, it’s just that IF it fails then you’re f*d
If you change every night then the battery’s lifetime is also a factor though.

[hadoukenboy628]

Im thinking something g3 sized. A ball bearing in the middle a small spring on both sides and a coil of copper around centre.
