A Swedish company has implanted microchips in its staff which allows them to use the photocopier, open security doors and even pay for their lunch.

He added that they believe they have only just started discovering all of the things having a microchip could allow us to do.

In 1999 Professor Kevin Warwick, of Reading University, had a chip implanted into his nervous system and was able to control a robot arm - developed by his colleague Dr Peter Kyberd - using thought power.
1999年,英国雷丁大学 It was hoped the technology could radically change the lives of amputees and victims of paralysis.

Last year MailOnline reported a Brisbane man, Ben Slater, had one of the chips being use din Stockholm injected into his left hand through a syringe at a Melbourne tattoo parlour.
据每日邮报网站 It means Mr Slater can swing his front door open, switch on his lights and store personal information with the flick of his hand.
这就意味着斯莱特先生只要挥一挥手就能打开他家前门和家里的灯,还可以将他的个人信息存储在芯片里。
'The most obvious thing the chip allows me to do is store my contact information on it, so that I can just touch a phone with NFC and pass my information to their phone. That is a great party trick,' he told Daily Mail Australia.
他在接受澳大利亚《每日邮报》采访时说道:“这块芯片带给我最大的帮助就是可以储存我的联系人信息。这样一来,我只需要轻触一台带有NFC芯片的手机,就可以将我的信息发送到指定联系人的手机上。这种小花招在聚会上十分的引人注目。
'But it can also trigger an action on my phone to turn the house lights off, open a secure door which is set to recognise the chip or I could - and probably will - set up my car ignition to be linked to the chip for keyless entry and start up.'
除此之外,这款芯片还能通过我的手机关掉家里的灯,打开只能识别我或是这块芯片的安全门。我的车的点火装置与这块芯片连接在一起,通过它,不需要钥匙也可以发动我的汽车。”
Mr Slater told Daily Mail Australia he made the decision to implant the microchip because he had always been interested in the future of technology.
他还表示,他之所以会决定将这块微型芯片植入体内是因为他一直以来都对未来的科技十分感兴趣。
'I wanted to get the chip implanted to generate discussion,' he said.
他说:“我希望人们能够注意到芯片植入这一技术。”
'It intrigues me that we live in an age where this type of activity is even possible.'
“它激起了我的兴趣。在我们生活的这一时代,这样的技术是有可能实现的。”
Mr Slater said the procedure to implant the microchip was painful, but over quickly.
斯莱特先生表示,植入微型芯片的过程会有点痛苦,但很快就会结束。
'I just needed to be really careful when it was healing over the course of two weeks so that I didn't move it - otherwise it could have travelled in my hand,' he said.
他说:“在愈合的两周内,我必须要细心呵护伤口,不敢动那块芯片,否则它会在我的手臂里随处游动。”
