I wonder how soon we’ll learn to control living birds? Using the same principle as RoboRoach. Only it’ll be more complicated with birds, with electrodes and electronic devices attached somewhere… But nothing is impossible, technology has come quite close. And consider just the military applications – like reconnaissance. Some birds spend almost their entire lives in flight, never landing – from swifts to albatrosses. It would be an interesting concept. It’s quite possible that animals will be the first to wear Google glasses.
