High Res Sonar Imaging and It's Networked Too

And if you see how well they (the dolphins, not the apes) are able to play with vortices in the water, I bet one could add ultrasound doppler radar to that as well.

Bull I've been able to do that for years, and can see what the other sees too, in color.

Earthling science is nowhere near understanding how earthlings tick.

More press-release nonsense; that image is pure conjecture about what a dolphin "sees." NBCNEWS is in the entertainment business, after all. My guess is that dolphins image a lot better than that, and include doppler effects (pseudocolor?) and time averaging and electric field clues.

It is interesting to conjecture that dolphins can image with pulses from other transmitters. Passive radar, in effect.

The claim to have "mapped the entire sensory and motor systems of the dolphin brain" is more cargo-cult science.

The author of that article doesn't know what radar is. bistatic is not passive, it uses an active transmitter, so what if it's not co-located.

This has been in the modeling and validation stage for decades now, and it has played a significant part in providing vision to the blind, so there's not a lot of cult to that cargo-cult claim.

I remember from one of my college textbooks, chemistry or physics, that a dolphin can tell by sound if a quarter is heads or tails.

I can't find anything online about dolphins recognizing heads or tails on a coin. But...

I think it's a storm trooper :^) Have you seen what they do with ultra sound pictures these days? (google 3-D ultrasound)
