To determine whether a fish can navigate on dry land, the scientists used a fish-operated vehicle (FOV) with special software and a motion-sensing camera that can monitor where the fish is swimming in its rolling aquarium.
When the fish bumps into the tank's walls or swims forward, for example, a camera above the tank tracks that movement. Based on the camera's signalling, an algorithm moves the tank, allowing the fish to "drive" the car. The algorithm is powered by a small programming computer called Raspberry Pi, Ars Technica reports.

"Honest, officer, it wasn't me! A cybercrook hacked into my goldfish's mobile bowl and used that to hack into my vehicle and take control of it ...and...I think I know who it was! Some guy's avatar's AI lost a lot of virtual currency at my virtual casino...which no longer exists because cybercrooks stole my identity and turned the site into a virtual bordello using my name...and...you gotta believe me...
