Scientists develop the gadgets, helping to understand language of animals

People dream to learn to understand long ago language of animals. And, probably, once they will be able “to have conversations” with domestic pets.

Researches in this direction are conducted now by professor from University of Northern Arizona Con Slobodchikoff, reports the The Daily Mail edition. Work of professor can seem simply frivolous eccentricity, however he is sure that dialogues of people and animals can become in the near future quite real phenomenon. To understand language of animals, according to the scientist, the gadget which isn't exceeding by the sizes the ordinary mobile phone will help.

Now Con Slobodchikoff: develops the special software, allowing to decipher bark of meadow doggies. This technology in the future also will help to interpret language of animal other types. Moreover, the technique will be improved so, as animals will be able to understand the human speech, so, full dialogue will take place.

The device on which, according to Slobodchikoff, it is required from 5 to 10 years, will work by the principle of the electronic translator. And if everything comes to the end successfully, it will change the whole world. People will be able to understand language as the pet, and wild animals, for example, lions or tigers, and even livestock language.

In the USA of 40 percent of families keep houses of dogs, and 33 percent – cats. Every year about 4 million dogs because of problems with behavior are thus lulled. The majority of these problems, according to the scientist, arises because of lack of mutual understanding between animals and people. The animal isn't capable to tell the person about the excitements, and the person, in turn, can't explain to an animal that he from it expects.
