Much of the technology in the Halo universe is possible, if not present, in today's world. For example, voice command and many of the UNSC weapons are present today in one form or another. However, one aspect of the Halo universe that I find particularly interesting is DNA recognition. It is DNA recognition that means only a human may activate a Halo Installation, and in Halsey's journal (the one that comes with the Limited Edition of Halo: Reach) Halsey mentions that...
'It would be simple enough to implant a small strip of nanocene explosive into the clasp and key it to my DNA; but as much as I might enjoy seeing one of my minders walking about a few fingers short, I'll likely employ something a tad more refined.'
My question is simple. Is it possible, or how would it be possible, for DNA recognition to occur in such a manner as it happens in the Halo universe? This is something that I have never fully understood, and any suggestions or theories you have would be of great interest to me.
As this is my first forum topic in the Bungie.net forums, I'd appreciate it if everybody played nice and there wasn't too much flaming.
Discussion is welcome.
