how does one design a backpack for a frog??
Random hackathon idea - curious if this is dumb or actually interesting.
What if you designed tiny **sensor “backpacks” for frogs**? Frogs naturally move through dense terrain, wetlands, and tight spaces where robots struggle. Instead of sending robots, you could attach a lightweight sensor pack and use them as a **distributed sensing network**.
Potential uses:
* detecting chemical spills
* mapping rainforest micro-climates
* environmental monitoring in hard-to-reach places
The main challenge would be making a pack that’s **ultra-light, waterproof, and doesn’t affect the frog’s movement**.
Has anything like this been done before?
Or is this just peak hackathon brain?
