The most striking product in the spy machine section is the ‘pigeon drone’ machine that can be attached to the pigeon’s neck and used as a drone and can fire 11 shots in 30 seconds. Apart from the machine made in England in 1907, the watch, the camera hidden in the heel of the shoes and inside the bottle of water attract attention in the museum.

The machine, which flew on the neck of mail pigeons in 1907, was used in warfare, determining the geographical area and mapping the area at that time, and was also in an important position for spies.

The camera attached to the pigeon’s neck can automatically shoot every 30 seconds while in the air. The camera used a century ago is the center of attention of those who see it.
