Development of Russian scientists
Scientists under the leadership of Vladimir Putin have created a squadron of unmanned spy pigeons equipped with brain implants. A Moscow neurotechnology company, backed by the Kremlin, claims that its operators can control the birds by sending signals directly to their brains.Special technologies
The Russian 'avian bio-drones' codenamed PJN-1 are ordinary pigeons that have undergone surgery to implant neural chips. This allows technicians to direct their flight from a distance."This technology opens up new possibilities in the field of surveillance and information gathering," the developers claim.
Prospects for application
Here are some possible applications of such technologies:- Unmanned monitoring of territories
