Ingestible RFID Pills, Body Temperature Monitoring, Holland Marathon

The technology, designed to prevent heat exhaustion, transmits data via Bluetooth to a cell phone, which then sends a text message alert if the user's temperature reaches dangerous levels. The government's involvement in such technology is noted with skepticism.
