Echolocation for Humans
anoopsinha writes "An article in New Scientist reports that bat echos can be used as virtual reality guide. People wearing headphones could easily hunt down a 'virtual insect', using only the echolocation sounds. The report says that it is a 'very intuitive process.' The researchers behind the project hope that a similar system in the cockpit of fighter planes could allow pilots to track some controls using their hearing, freeing up their eyes for other tasks."

I don't know why I'm remembering now something I asked
a person from somewhere long ago whose face I don't even remember.
It was something about how, surprisingly soon, important things will be rolling
by my side, and that they're things you can't see.
While saying something about how we were born imperfect, so
in order to become perfect we... la la la...
When was I able to believe in unseeable things?
Now I see too much and don't understand.
Only unrelated words are lined up on the paper.
I get the feeling that I wrote a poem or something, la la la...
If I find an important thing I won't tell anyone.
I'm very strong when I have something I must protect.
Didn't I say I couldn't stay in a place that's always the same?
