- Scientists hope to model bee brains to power autonomous flying robots
It sounds the stuff of b-movie science fiction, autonomous flying robots with the brains of bees. But there are immediate practical application for the research being carried out at the U.K. universities of Sheffield and Sussex.
Computerworld reports that the development of an artificial brain is what scientists say is one of the greatest challenges in artificial intelligence. Generally, however, the studies have been of rats, monkeys and humans, but social insects have advanced cognitive capabilities too.
By creating models of the systems in a bee’s brain that control vision and sense of smell, scientists are hoping to build a flying robot that can do more than carry out pre-programmed instructions. Such a robot would be able to sense and act as autonomously as a bee…
The universities are using GPU accelerators, donated by Nvidia , to perform the massive calculations needed to simulate a brain using a standard desktop PC, instead of a far more expensive supercomputer…
In the research on bees’ brains, the scientists said they hope their findings can be used to build flying robots that could, for example, be used in search and rescue missions, perhaps to gather information that rescue teams could use to make decisions about how to proceed.

Question by Alejo: Is it legal for my company to ask me for a second drug test because " i drank too much water" ? I took a drug test a few days ago. Today I was told I had to go again because "I drank too much water" and the test could not be read correctly or something like that... Is that legal? Can they just really do that? Best answer for Is it legal for my company to ask me for a second drug test because " i drank too much water" ?:
Answer by rtfm Answer by Sharon T
If the test results were inconclusive, then yes, they have every right to have you take the test again, and again if necessary, until they get a valid result.
You don't have to work there if you don't like it. They have the right to know whether you are clear of drugs.
