The ability to manage a swarm of drones can have any number of business benefits — not the least of which is the WOW factor. Intel has staged a number of light shows with swarms of drones. Most recently their technology was used to produce a multimedia piece on Wonder Woman. Intel has been building on the technology to manage multiple drones, a technology they obtained with the acquisition of Ascending Technologies, a German firm.
Here are a couple of videos. The first is the light show – amazing. The second features Natalie Cheung of Intel discussing the project. (PS – the movie was also awesome).
