A technology centre housing over a hundred companies that began offering free microchip implants to its workers in 2015 says 150 people now have the chips embedded in their hands.

One employee even created an automated smoothie machine that let users purchase the drinks using their chips.

The centre claims to be the first place in Sweden to use implants on a large scale.
