The Thing





There is a diaphram in the eye of eagle which get vibrated when sound wave fall on it . It consisted of a tiny capacitive membrane connected to a small quarter-wavelength antenna; it had no power supply or active electronic components. The device became active only when a radio signal of the correct frequency was sent to the device from an external transmitter. 



Sound waves caused the membrane to vibrate, which varied the capacitance of the circuit.When capacitance get changed , operating frequency get changed.When this changed frequency supply reached Antenna circuit, different EM wave is produced which get modulated with incoming EM wave and is get re-transmitted by the Thing. A receiver demodulated the signal so that sound picked up by the microphone could be heard, just as an ordinary radio receiver demodulates radio signals and outputs sound.
