Australian man who's had a microchip inserted into his hand so that he can do more with the iPhone 6...maybe...

A Brisbane man is living the life of the future after having a microchip implanted under his skin so he can control electronic devices with just a wave of a hand.

Ben Slater had a radio-frequency identification microchip - which has similar measurements to a grain of rice - injected into his left hand through a syringe two weeks ago at a Melbourne tattoo parlour.

The advertising director's move comes as technology enthusiasts eagerly await the unveiling of the iPhone 6 in two days time.

He hopes the new generation of Apple's smart phone will have the capability to read the microchip implanted in the webbing between his thumb and forefinger.

The new addition to his body means Mr Slater can swing his front door open, switch on his lights and store personal information with the flick of his hand. Full story...
