Subscribe to our channel! rupt.ly/subscribe Scientists at Ben-Gurion University in Beersheba, Israel have created a haptic vest that allows humans to direct their dogs' behaviour using a remote control, footage showed on Wednesday.
Dogs are usually trained to perform tasks using behavioural obedience techniques, but these cannot be used if the owner is mute, or the dog cannot hear or see you, when it's too noisy or during emergencies when the dogs are rescuing people in disaster areas.
According to the developers, the newly-invented vest, with a receiver for the remote signal and four vibration motors on it, seems to be a solution for such situations.
However, young inventors are not selling the device yet, saying that they are "still working on it in a research aspect" but not hiding their excitement on what has been achieved so far.
