Drones were the Christmas craze this year and a Kickstarter smartphone-controlled drone project with a $125 million project goal has raised $1.35 million.
“Right out of the box you can begin capturing and sharing aerial photographs and videos,” says Ivan Reedman, Head of R&D for the project which is called ZANO.
‘A plethora of sensors work seamlessly together to allow ZANO to avoid obstacles, hold its position and know exactly where it is in conjunction with your smart device, at all times,’ says the project description.
If ZANO senses it’s strayed too far from your phone or is running low on battery, it will automatically return to your phone.
Operating on a virtual tether to your phone allows a “Follow me” capability which will instruct ZANO to constantly maintain that distance from your smart device and follow you.
