Loaded with surveillance technology, the pigeons spy on the public, collecting your private data. Discover where it all began and how pigeon drones came to be. Breaking down the pigeon puzzle. Welcome to Pigeons Aren't Real. The government are using pigeons as biological drones to collect private data. Find out more.

Jan 24, 2020 · Using this information, the team in Lentink’s Bio-Inspired Research and Design (BIRD) Lab built a simple, propeller-powered robot out of foamboard, rubber bands, and real pigeon feathers. When its fingers and wrists were rotated via remote control, the feathers automatically moved in proportion and recreated wing shapes as seen in pigeons.

Jan 16, 2020 · They found that pigeons control flight through about 40 Velcro-like feathers, using four “wrist” and “finger” joints to steer their movements. The researchers re-created the same mechanics in...

The metabolic power of the living pigeon host is essentially harnessed by the government’s control. This diagram illustrates how some of the key surveillance equipment is strategically embedded in the organism. The main components of the pigeon drone are the camera, microphone and wireless antenna.

Jan 24, 2022 · Researchers at EPFL in Switzerland believe that besting an aerial adversary requires an aerial approach, and so they’ve deployed an autonomous system that can identify roof-invading pigeons and then send a drone over to chase them away.

Feb 25, 2025 · Explore the groundbreaking Pigeon Robot, a bio-inspired drone mimicking bird flight. Discover its potential for stealth surveillance and innovative applications in aviation and robotics.

Jan 17, 2020 · Meet PigeonBot, a biohybrid, flying robot that combines the propeller, fuselage, and tail of a man-made aircraft with the wing structure and actual feathers of a pigeon. Designed by engineers at...

New footage of new bird-like drones allegedly used by China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) “Sea Dragon” commandos has been released. Apparently designed to resemble birds, like pigeons, from...

Jan 21, 2020 · Scientists at Stanford's Bio-Inspired Research & Design (BIRD) lab figured out how pigeons are able to morph the shape of their wings during flight. From those findings came "PigeonBot," a...

Jan 22, 2020 · Introducing the PigeonBot, a new UAV designed to soar like a real-life pigeon using bird-like feathered wings. Developed by a team of researchers at Stanford University, the experimental drone...
