We’ve seen quite a number of remote controlled gadgets but now scientists have taken a step ahead, going to show us with remote controlled beasts. They’ve just started doing it on pigoens. The research work by the team of scientists at the Shandong University of Science and Technology. What they did was implanting radio receiver electrodes in the brain of pigeons to control them. They managed to make the pigeons hover, fly or turn right or left through a computer control. According to the chief scientist that there is no pain on the pigeon’s head and failures will not influence the pigeon’s life. What’s next after pigeons? Possibly seeing remote controlled shark or crocodile? So, don’t piss them off, you’d anytime get a big bite by these remote controlled beasts!
