Teaching Dogs to talk

 In the article “Teaching dogs to talk is easier than you think”,
Melody Jackson an associate professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology has created a vest that dogs wear so they can talk to their owners. Melody’s dog, Sky, has helped test these sensors by telling the FIDO or "Facilitating Interactions for Dogs with Occupations." if they work or not. Bomb sniffing dogs usually say hey I found an explosive, but this dog can tell what kind of explosive so the bomb can be handled carefully. Jackson is wishing that after putting the vest to the test with canines they can help on the battlefield.The vest also has the capability of telling the difference between a frisbee and a tennis ball and telling their handlers. Jackson is wishing that after putting the vest to the test with canines they can help on the battlefield. Melody and her research team have developed one thing that is pretty amazing. They developed a medical vest that can sense a trapped or missing person. Jackson believes any trained dog could be able to pick up these technology very easily because she said one of her dogs was able to understand the technology in just 27 seconds.
I found this article interesting because I would love it if my dog could talk and I thought it was amazing that the vest could sense what kind of bomb and it would be very useful on the battlefield. I picked this article because I love dogs and I think this is such a good idea.
