Israeli university developed dog cameras for army unit linked to Gaza attacks

Tel Aviv University is running an “engineering war room” developing technology for the Israeli army including a live-streaming facility for a dog-mounted camera used by a canine unit linked to deadly attacks on Palestinian civilians in Gaza.

Details of the work are revealed in a video posted on social media by the university last week which described how it had opened a “war room” on campus to support hundreds of academics and students serving as reservists in the army.

The video noted that the highest proportion of serving soldiers had come from the faculty of engineering. It said that an “engineering war room” had also been established to “invent solutions for the challenges of our fighters on the front line”.

It goes on to describe how one of these innovations has enabled soldiers in the army's canine unit to live stream footage from the cameras worn by its dogs.
