RoboSalmon, an underwater robot meant to spy on the real fish, is being developed at Glasgow University. The robot has a built-in camera to broadcast images of real fish back to the operators of the device. Zoologists will use RoboSalmon to monitor various fish species in their natural habitat.
This newsclip is brought to you by the producers of 007. I hope it is just a coincident that this robosalmon is developed at this time. Or perhaps it was not a coincident, and the British secret service has decided: enough is enough. James Bond is outperformed at the box-office by a couple of penguins, so how could that happen. And, thus they send in a "RoboSalmon" to spy on those poor penguins.
Or someone thought: yes it's not a good idea to keep poisoning real spies, like Mr. Litvinenko. Cutting the power of a RoboSalmon is a lot easier, and doesn't create international outrage.
On a more serious note: what can this "RoboSalmon" tell us what we not already know? Scientist are studying underwater life for a real long time, and that results, among other things, in beautiful TV documentaries. This smells to me as throwing away money. I have no serious problems with the fact that universities and governments want to throw away their money, as long they throw it my way, and it doesn't look that that is happening right now.
