Learning to create and break secret codes.


Birdseed, camera, pistol, wireless communication device. Which of these would you take on a mission?

Has your cover been blown? Time to get a new identity with the face scanner.
Actually, that's a good idea, I scanned my face too.
The Real Spy Gadgets
This "rock" was discovered outside of the British Embassy in Moscow, Russia. English spies are said to have passed messages to each other using the electronics inside. As th espy walks past the rock, a receiver inside grabs a message from the spy's cellphone. Later on he can walk past it again and the rock will transmit back a reply.

On the left we have a special camera designed for trained dolphins to wear. Their job is capture pictures of underwater mines and bring the photos back so we can find and defuse the explosives (or avoid them). The middle camera uses fiber optic cable, allowing you to push it under a door or through a small opening, so you can clearly see what's happening beyond. THe last camera is shaped like a ball is a SpyEye camera. It sticks to walls and then transmits its footage up to 300 yards away. Just quietly place it somewhere, tilt it so it points where you need it to, and then walk away.
Inspired by the flight design of a dragonfly, this flapping Entomopter can fly, crawl, and swim and is designed to get into hard to reach areas for surveillance. It doesn't run off of regular batteries, instead using a chemical mixture to produce the energy needed to power it. It's part of a growing category of spy vehicles called micro aerial vehicles or MAV for short.
