Robot coyotes are protecting the Blue Angels from airport pests.

The US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) has created an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) system designed to scare wildlife like birds away from airports.

Built atop a 20 mph Traxxas RC car, the UGVs are upgraded with plastic coyotes to make them more intimidating and cost around $3,000 each, according to New Atlas. Testing is still under way, including at the Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida where the Blue Angels call home.

Force feedback comes to the... Super Nintendo?

Working with Randal Linden, who helped bring Doom to the SNES in 1995, Limited Run Games has announced a new version of the game featuring improved graphics and additional levels. Two versions will be available for preorder on July 11th for $99.99 and $174.99 and will ship early next year.

LRG has also created a $34.99 wired SNES controller upgraded with a pair of rumble motors that vibrate in response to what’s happening in the updated game.

<em>LRG’s SNES Rumble Controller will only work with </em>Doom,<em> but the company says it will work with other developers who want to add rumble support to their own retro games.</em>

<em>The Standard Edition of </em>Doom<em> includes an SNES cartridge with a metallic finish, retro-style packaging, an instruction manual, and a poster.</em>

<em>The Collector’s Edition of </em>Doom<em> includes an SNES cartridge with a metallic finish and blood splatter print and adds a foil box and a certificate of authenticity.</em>
