Drones to cause huge unpeaval in society
#4
While walking my dog yesterday, I came across a man flying a six-propeller drone. I watched for some 20 minutes until he landed it. It flew very fast in any direction his two joysticks dictated. It had a positionable webcam he could view on his hand-held controller [or could transmit via wifi anywhere else]. It had a range of about a Km [.65 mile] and could lift a rather hefty load. Its battery pack alone was heavy and huge! I looked at a local large computer store and they were selling a similar one for about $400. I can only imagine what a few thousand dollars can buy these days....and what capabilities they might have. Brave New World or Hellish Electronic Nightmare?:Read:
