"Cockroach Controlled Mobile Robot" is an experimental mechanism that uses a living Madagascan hissing cockroach atop a modified trackball to control a three-wheeled robot. If the cockroach moves left, the robot moves left. Infrared sensors also provide navigation feedback to the cockroach, striving to create a pseudo-intelligent system with the cockroach as the CPU.
Yeah, cuz we need to give the cockroach even better survivability...
LOL, dammit I'm a couple of hours late!
Ah well, even the same link so the description is the same :(
