HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
ACKS!! -
@alishanmao who's afraid of skynet? humans r the scourge of other humans
-
@HexCam no need to see the quad once in the window if its primary purpose was to explode
-
@HexCam defending against, and killing man, is the most important tool in survival..we speak english sadly, because of the knife
-
@trisky1234 then u must blind urself, as weaponization of something like this is a natural progression
-
@frongjumping Bit of a late reply but, mechanically, quads are far simpler than a traditional helicopter. If it is just the quad then there are only four moving parts... the four motors. Everything else is solid state. The wizardry is in the flight controller, the programing and some impressive physics :)

@rmulr842 With those rotors, it's the quad that does the blending :)

@gukonni I agree. A knife is a useful tool until someone turns it on another person. Anything is a weapon. There is research going into using these things to deliver medicines rapidly and things like that. The only real limitations have to be flight time and the ability to sense and avoid unexpected objects.

@looqmann1 Most definitely! although there are some pretty awesome pilots out there! The issue for a human would be "seeing" the quad once through the window and flying from an onboard camera through gaps at that speed would be almost impossible due to video lag.

So if you could combine some sort of induction charger with the perching you have a completely autonomous system that is ready to rock at a moment's notice and will take itself back to recharge when done. Multiple recharge points around your facility would give flexibility for applications like security. Motion sensors could pick up points of interest then automatically send the quad to investigate. Would certainly scare the life out of an intruder if that thing popped up in front of them! :)
Fuckin' manhacks, man.
