Created on 22 Nov 2016
A Drone that follows you, or whatever you want it to
Have you ever wanted to have a drone follow you or a moving object without the hassle of a remote controller? If you have, then you're at the right place. Our specially modified drone will follow whoever is holding a tracker. It can record your environment and collect other information as well.
