Dairy of a Madman

The brain doesn�t care where visual input comes from. So why not see with a camera jacked into your tongue? (from Wired magazine)

Don�t fly by the seat of your pants. That mantra is drilled into every pilot�s head in flight school. It means pay no attention to the g-forces pushing against your ass; and keep your eyes on your instruments. If you don�t, and your plane is in a spin or a loop, you could get caught thinking down is up. But as aviation technology evolves, the cockpit is filling up with new instruments, overwhelming the pilot�s ability to take it all in at a glance. Luckily, the eyes aren�t the only way to see. Pilots can now sense other aircraft from a tiny zap on their shoulders. And they�ll soon be able to land a helicopter in a dust storm with infrared images lightly buzzing their tongues.
