Wifi + Solar Power - Great Use - Tracking Turtles



A few months back a program on the National Geographic Channel about the Red Panda's going missing, and scientists still using radio tags to catch them, put me into thinking, on why they were stil not using Wi-Fi technology. Well, my answer was not far off, today's posting on Tree Hugger, about MIT Scientists (who else), putting solar powered wi-fi devices on the back of turtles, to track there whereabouts, and also to study the behaviour of a diminishing population, had me sit up and read.

A very interesting reading, click here, to read the full article.
