Some say “Dune” franchise spikes around the spice melanche (A magical drug that makes the interbank trip possible), but true “Dune” fans knows the property around Sandworms. Giant worms walking around the Arrakis desert planet are a great opportunity, a great opportunity and great fear. They can create spice and they can be used As a Maceshift UberBut they can eat you too and they will not feel bad about it.
If you want to manage the worms, most of you need a tool: Thumper. A mechanical device created by Fremen, a Thumper, as if it will literally illuminate sand, covers the sand from the sand and makes noise to attract the closest worm. The worm will come to eat Thumper, but it's good; Fremen, who activates it, almost went off the road until it came.
Why do worms always come to Thumpers? Because the rhythm that stains the sand gives the impression of something that makes a noise and creatures for good worm. Underground worms, here are used here to hear random noises here or there, thanks to the wind throwing around it, therefore knows this natural noise. (Not worried about how to hunt by the waterfalls or other natural sound sources of foreigners, who are “quietly in a quiet place”.)
Thumpers is a masterful tool created by Fremen
In a sense, Thumpers have been the common opposite of Sandwalking techniques taught Fremen since childhood. Sandwalk is an irregular in your foot irregularly involving the sounds of the natural desert. Meanwhile, the purpose of a Thumper is not to interfere in general. Sometimes, it is used to draw a worm for taxi purposes; Other times are designed to hide the evidence of any crime that occurs at a certain point. And sometimes, Thumper is part of a trap; Fremen can draw a place to the enemy to the enemy, you can just get there for the enemy and understand that Thumper is very late for the road and a worm is too late to swallow each moment.
Although we do not see many in the books “Dune”, Thumpers have a lot of change. There is a type type that comes with a candle; When the candle is on, Thumper trigger and begins to attract worms. (Pine is designed to burn longer or shorter. They are not able to use almost a lot of technology because they are fractions, but these effective and complexity are able to build this effective technology. Merge Thumper technology with Fremen Amazing nanny technologyAnd there are a group of people who are very smart about how they walked between all these sand.
And the author of “Dune” is Frank Herbert where did the idea get the idea for Thumpers? Ecological writer, American Woodcock, using a very similar tactic, it is possible to inspire the American Woodcock, which is attractive above the ground. The bird's approach is, of course, smaller scale and smaller scale, but it is not difficult to remind Thumpers because we follow these sweet little children:
