Video: Shark Spies Steered by “Squid Juice”

makoshark.jpgI’m sure you’ll all remember that happy day last March, when word broke that a Darpa-funded scientist was looking for ways to turn sharks into “stealth spies.” Now, thanks to the sharp-eyed SC, we can all check out a video of the shark training in action.
Back in the spring, I figured this research was in its earliest, most basic stages — getting a sense of what makes a shark tick. Not so. Boston University professor Jelle Atema can actually “steer a shark” — either through “electrical stimulation of the brain” or by delivering “little odor pulses” of “squid juice” to the predator’s nose.
Atema’s Darpa funding is done. So Atema is looking for more cash to better train his sharky posse. Maybe to “track ocean temperature changes,” or the “spread of pollution,” he says.
Meanwhile, “the military has… made the research classified, and it is now run out of the Naval Undersea Warfare Center,” says a Boston University alumni newsletter. No word, yet, on whether the little buggers have frickin’ lasers attached to their heads. But, surely, it can’t be that far off.

about time you people started paying me to road test all this stuff in humans. Look forward to our next encounter in Las Vegas. This time, if you buy me a beer I promise not to chase a deputy Director around the car park of the Belagio in my dollar rent’a car !
