| Nano swarm quadcopter robots
I thought this was pretty cool and scary at the same time. Man these things are getting small. See nano quadcopter robots swarm (video) | Cutting Edge - CNET News |

That would be so cool to be walking around and you have all of those just following you around . They would probably be expensive. The figure 8 thing was cool that's pretty good to be able to have them doing that and not colliding.

Those are flying in the lab, and all the cameras you see in the vid go into a computer (probably not an 8 year old laptop running XP) that calculates the position of each one and coordinates their movement. The computer can fly one of those things through a box about 2 inches larger than the copter, at speed, at a 45 degree angle. Pretty amazing what they can do in a controlled environment. I build these things for a living, and you should see mine flying GPS routes with the radio sitting on the ground Judgment Day is nigh. I only hope our robot overlords will have mercy on their creator. Last edited by microgoat; 02-01-2012 at 05:39 PM. |

Let em take over! As some one who drove for a living in NYC I'm just looking foward to the day that swarming ability eliminates traffic jams!
