People behaviour controlled by ultrasonic transponder system

Description

(approx. 150 words)
Please describe the Wild Card (approx. 150 words)
There is developed a novel telemetry technology for biomedical applications that will enable any kind of deeply implanted device (the transponder) to communicate and be powered wirelessly via acoustic waves with the external system (the control unit). The technology may be misused to forcible control of behavioru of selected people or even bigger groups of people.
