10 Facts About The Iconic James Bond Film Gadgets
10. Microchip Implant - Casino Royale
This microchip is one of the more practical gadgets to make it onto this list. The microchip used to track Bonds's vitals and location in Casino Royale (2006) deserved its own mention because this technology does actually exist and has saved the lives of many civilians, not just top secret MI6 agents while they're playing a game of poker with their enemies.
Before Q came up with the idea of "Smart" Blood, he used another kind of nano-technology to track Bond's whereabouts and bodily functions. The microchip is put to the test during the film as 007 is spiked with an almost-lethal amount of poison snuck into his shaken martini by the cunning Valenka. Thanks to the microchip, Bond is warned of the unwanted mixer in his drink and excuses himself to chug saltwater until his body rejects all of the liquid, and he throws it all back up.
Perhaps a gadget that is less preventative and more curing, the microchip deserved an honourable mention as this technology is more accessible than most others featured in the film series
