(RoboTuna from MIT)

Olin College professor David Barrett tells tech magazine InformationWeek about an effort to build a robotic fish modeled after the speedy bluefin tuna. The project, which could have ramifications for building better submarines, is also expected to include the big fish taking a dip at a lake at Wellesley College, according to Barrett, who built the original RoboTuna as an MIT student in the mid-1990s.
