High-tech-equipped dogs could be deployed as a fleet of roving sensors in a disaster zone to locate victims quickly and easily while relaying data about environmental hazards and other information in real time, scientists say.
Charles Muntz, the villain of the Pixar movie Up, owns a pack of dogs who wear special collars that allow the dogs to speak English with humans. Though your dog isn’t likely to learn that trick anytime soon, a group of researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a device that help bridge the communication gap between dogs and humans. David Roberts and Alper Bozkurt are co-lead authors of the paper, which has been published in an open access format in the journal IEEE Intelligent Systems.
Researchers from North Carolina State University (NCSU) showed off pioneering work demonstrating the potential of technologies that allow dogs to gather information, and stay safe, during search and rescue operations.
They say a dog is man’s best friend… but a new project at North Carolina State University aims to strengthen the renowned bond even further.
Researchers at North Carolina State University are inventing technology to decode dog talk. Hari Sreenivasan visits a computer science lab that has designed a harness to monitor physiological and emotional changes and send wireless commands through vibrations, which could be used with guide animals or search and rescue dogs.
