Beetle Wrestler
Chris Woebken, Natalie Jeremijenko, Lee Von Kraus, Leigha Dennis 2008 A device to wrestle with the STRONGEST ANIMAL IN THE WORLD: the rhinoceros beetle. This device includes a head-and-body mounted display that equips humans with the appendages required to interact (with the males at least). In addition it scales us and our forces to the beetle proportions granting us similar manipulative capacities and even playing field; an architecture of reciprocity.
