Why are 'biohackers' having LED lights implanted under their skin?
A company spokesperson said: “Northstar V1, much like piercings and cosmetic surgeries, is purely for aesthetic purposes.
"It is a simple device that will prove the possibility of implanting technology in the body and will pave the way for more advanced and functional augmentations."
Writing on its Facebook page, the organisation said many people had become excited at the lights on Tim's Circadia chip and wanted their own.
The post said: "Many people who saw the lights were very excited. They have been waiting years for something like this.
"They asked for them to be made available. We obliged. So, yes, this version of Northstar simply lights up."
He said: “People from the biohacking community wanted it. They contacted us because they wanted to light up their tattoos. That’s how we generate our implants, we let the community inspire us."
