Nano drones, the advanced systems that pack a lot of functionality into a tiny form factor, are becoming a major military tool. FLIR announced last month that they have won an additional $20.6 million contract for their Black Hornet® 3 Personal Reconnaissance Systems (PRS). Very few manufacturers in the drone industry can ignore the military market. As drone technology … [Read more...] about Nano Drones: The Tiny Personal Drones the Military is Buying in Bulk

MIT Researchers Develop Miniature Brains for Miniature Drones
MIT researchers are working to create miniature brains for miniature drones - designing a computer chip specifically for the purpose. "Standard computer chips for quadcoptors and other similarly sized drones process an enormous amount of streaming data from cameras and sensors, and interpret that data on the fly to autonomously direct a drone’s pitch, speed, … [Read more...] about MIT Researchers Develop Miniature Brains for Miniature Drones
