The Thing, also known as the Great Seal bug, was one of the first covert listening devices (or "bugs") to use passive electromagnetic induction to transmit an audio signal. It is considered a predecessor of current RFID technology, because it was likewise passive, being energized and activated by electromagnetic waves from an outside source.
