Dissecting the elephant (and this has nothing to do with JS)
summary
Talk examines an elephant as a complex engineered system: why elephants are intelligent and paranoid, sensory and mechanical augmentations you could integrate (nose sensor, snorkel, thermal panels on the head, radios in the legs) and how those change limb usage and dressing. It also covers biomechanics and behavior (pressure-related explanations of dominance), deployment of a baby elephant, and historical population decline and current restoration efforts.
