British Scientists have designed a 1.5 meter long, robotic fish that can detect sources of pollution. The fish, which resembles a carp, will be fitted with detectors which can identify potentially hazerdous discharges at sea. Worth a mere $29,000, these valuable robots are set to be released in the Bay of Biscay at Gijon in northern Spain in 18 months. To read the full story, click here.
