TONGUE SIGHT
:eek:
PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) _ The G-I's of the future could be sticking their tongues out at the enemy. It won't be an insult, but a super weapon. Researchers say harnessing the power of taste could be crucial in giving Army Rangers night vision like owls or Navy SEALS sonar like dolphins. Scientists at the Florida Institute for Human and Machine Cognition say signals routed through nerves in the tongue could give humans super-power senses. Institute director Ken Ford says the key is training people how to process the extra information. He says applications go beyond the battlefield. He can foresee the day when the blind will be able to "see," thanks to cameras attached to tongue nerves.
