1. A device for the direction of a living body comprising stimulation means placed in a formation conducive to providing stimulations perceptible to the brain as a discernable point, or points, or shapes, or any combination thereof whose positions may be perceived or learned to be perceived in some spatial frame of reference relatable to an actual environment with said stimulators being physically located on or proximate to parts of the body with adequate sensitivity to said stimulations;
- and a behavior controller means operatively connected to stimulation means for directing stimulations; and
a power means for the provision of power where needed to the controller means, the elements connected to the controller means, or any combination thereof;
whereby behavior controller means may direct an action or a series of actions with instructions that may include directions whose intent will tend to be intuitively recognized or more easily learned by the mind due to graphically perceived points, patterns, or pointers, or visually oriented points, or selective or varied stimulations of a point or points which are or can be related in the mind to desired actions or spatial locations in the current environment, or any combination of any of the above.

30. A device for securing animal-directing or tracking equipment to birds comprising
an assembly made up of a collar, tail-loop, back sheath, and leg assembly connected together around the body; - and
a storage compartment secured by the assembly;
wherebythe storage compartment is supported by this assembly to prevent load shifting and still leave the bird unencumbered enough to fly.

31. A device for the training of a living being comprising:
-
stimulation means placed in a formation conducive to providing stimulations perceptible to the brain as a discernable point, or points, or shapes, or any combination thereof whose positions may be perceived or learned to be perceived in some spatial frame of reference relatable to an actual environment with said stimulators being physically located on or proximate to parts of the body with adequate sensitivity to said stimulations; and
computer means operatively connected to stimulation means for directing stimulations; and
sensor means operatively connected to computer means for identifying degrees of success or failure in the following of instructive stimulations; and
power means for the provision of power where needed to the behavior controller means, the elements connected to the behavior controller means, or any combination thereof;
wherebycomputer means, whether attached to the body or separate from the stimulation assembly and thus directing stimulations remotely, can, automatically direct the body through potentially extensive and rigorous training sessions by stimulating direction commands as part of a computer-driven script or process which may include positive reinforcement for obedience, or negative reinforcement for disobedience or both. - View Dependent Claims (32)

33. A method for the direction of a living body wherein:
-
(a) stimulation means are placed in a formation on or proximate to a living body in a manner conducive to providing stimulations perceptible to the brain as instructions (b) a remote person or computer or computer assisted person, or any combination thereof, direct actions to be performed (c) these commands are communicated as necessary to the body-worn assembly which includes the stimulation means. (d) these commands are converted and produced as stimulations delivered by stimulation means - View Dependent Claims (34)
