We have all seen the roach robot, well not fish also have a chance to control a robot!
Seth Weiner’s art project is a vehicle called Terranaut. This interesting vessel is driven by the motions of a parrot cichlid in a fish bowl. A camera mounted above the tank tracks the fish’s movement and relays that information to a computer, which then drives the robot in the direction the fish was traveling. With this contraption the fish is capable of exploring land in a way never before possible. It’s one small step for fish, one giant leap for fish-kind or something.
