  • It was my Moms ...

    It was my Moms sister. In the evening, I think she saw me, but was pulling her clam open for the camera. She's very very hairy.

    Very cool! (The helicopter, not the hurricane) That is a very good idea for spying and stuff and whatnot.

  • one person ...

    one person operating the camera, the other piloting the helicopter. the pilot can take the helicopter behind things because he is looking through a cammera as well.

    Yes, i see what you mean... Hopefully they will develop the technology to make the piloting of it more autonomous.

  • stabilization for ...

    stabilization for one. generally people use gyros to help hold the cammera in the vertical, while the tail gyro on the heli takes care of horizontal.
    plus, what if the heli is up high, and they want to look down on something?

    it gets busy enough piloting one, let alone paying attention to a cammera. the cammera operator can simply point and shoot as he pleases...much faster.

  • Why do they need a ...

    Why do they need a guy to operate a moveable camera alone? As a helicopter can move in 3 dimensions, strafe, nose up, nose down, turn on the spot etc, it surely only needs a fixed camera, the pilot just has to move the copter to change the camera position. That's one less person straight away.

    be so funny if all of a sudden the pilot started doing some tic toks in the background, or maybe a few knife edge circuits.

  • All in all it will ...

    All in all it will be an incredible asset once the technology is more developed. Imagine, when there is a disaster or someone goes missing, emergency personnel can release dozens of small, flying drones with video and infrared cameras to cover miles in moments rather than days.

  • I think this is ...

    I think this is awesome. Those that critical of this are just shortsighted. The technology is still new so of course there are still things to be worked out.
    For example, MIT's Carbon Nanotube Enhanced Ultracapacitors project could create an energy source that would extend the range of this type of device considerably. And if they use a nanotube structure for the heli it might be lighter and stronger as well.
