Chapter 302 Our Radar
The flying bird is not a product of natural evolution, but one of the ultimate representatives of alchemy technology - a synthetic beast, which means it is an artificial creature.+
As an artificial creature, the bird has a very special body structure. Its own gas propulsion system is already a strange existence in the biological world, but this is not all its alternative.
Because of the use of gas injection flight method, the birds' flying speed is very fast. At this speed, vision obviously cannot meet the requirements, because vision is too much affected by environmental factors such as obstacles. If the field of view is not wide enough in areas with complex terrain, there is no way to avoid obstacles at the bird's speed.
In order to cope with the requirements of its own high-speed flight ability for information collection, the bird's observation organ is not located in the eyes of the head, but its entire tail.
The body structure of the bird is actually very alternative. The posture he uses when flying is not what we are used to flying forward, but flying backward. The sharp triangular spine in the direction of progress when flying is actually the extension of his spine, that is, the tailbone. As for the short and flat thing located behind the bird, it is actually his head, and his brain is in this position. However, because the bird has no neck, this part is actually not very obvious, it just slightly protrudes the body a little bit. As for the long streamer behind it, it should actually be the crown of the bird's head, or hair. However, this thing is different from hair. It has muscle tissue inside, which can move according to the bird's consciousness. When the bird is flying, this thing basically plays a vertical tail and can assist in steering.
Because the head is located at the back of the body when flying, the bird's vision is actually very average, and even if the vision is good, it obviously does not mean much to the bird that can only fly forward. After all, you can't see the things in front of you at this position. Therefore, the real dominant sense of the bird is actually the triangular spine located directly in front of the flight direction. This thing looks like a weapon, but it is actually an antenna.
We all know that there are a large number of nerve bundles in the vertebrates, which is an important nerve central area as the brain. The tail vertebrae of the bird, that is, the end of the spinal nerve, has a relatively large nerve hub. This hub is actually an auxiliary brain. The difference from the brain is that this auxiliary brain does not have the ability to think abstractly and cannot control any organs in the body. The actual function of this auxiliary brain is similar to an electromagnetic emitter and a supporting translator.
This auxiliary brain will use a group of special cells in the body to generate high-voltage currents according to the instructions of the brain, and then use highly metallization to make the coccyx act as an antenna to transmit the strong current in the form of electromagnetic pulses. At the same time, the coccyx will be responsible for receiving the echo signal after the signal is emitted. When the coccyx receives the echo, the signal will be transmitted to the auxiliary brain. The auxiliary brain will screen and analyze the echo signal, first remove irrelevant signals and other similar signals, and then separate the signals sent by itself and decode them. According to this set of echo signals, the auxiliary brain can create a three-dimensional scanning pattern of the surrounding environment and pass it on to the brain.
Simply put, the auxiliary brain, the group of power generation cells, and the tailbone, combines the three into one to form a radar. Yes, it is radar, a biological radar.
Relying on this set of biological radars, birds can completely ignore the influence of light and fly arbitrarily in the dark or daytime. At the same time, because the diffraction ability of electromagnetic waves far exceeds that of light waves, and the penetration power of electromagnetic waves is also better than that of broadcasting, biological radars actually have certain steering and penetration capabilities. This is why birds can fly at high speed in many narrow underground passages on curves without hitting walls, because they can see the next curve and the route afterwards before they approach the curve, so they can plan the flight trajectory in advance. If you look at the road with your eyes, you don’t know what the route is like before turning the corner, but when you turn over, it will be too late to look at the road again. Therefore, the role of this set of biological radars is more useful than the eyes in most cases, especially in high-speed flight mode.
When I shared all the surrounding environment information scanned by the bird using biological radar into my head, all my magic pets were equivalent to seeing the surrounding environment simultaneously.
This is a very special information picture. Because it is different from the eyes, the radar signal cannot display color, so what appears in our mind is actually a set of pictures that are completely displayed with grayscale, just like sketches. Of course, the fineness is completely incomparable. At the same time, this picture is not continuous except for no color. In fact, the picture we see is constantly flashing, and it is constantly updated to the surroundings with the bird as the center. However, the refresh speed is very fast, basically refreshing hundreds of times every second, so although we know it is flashing, there is actually no abnormal feeling. In this picture, we quickly discovered our goal. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
