flying robots play ping-pong

The quadrocopters shown in the video are being tested at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology’s Flying Machine Arena in Zurich. The little machines are increasingly commonly used by military and police forces as surveillance drones, generally remotely controlled (the ones in the video are entirely autonomous – true robots.).
I wish this had some sort of science hook to hang it on, but there isn’t, really, except that it’s a remarkable demonstration of robot technology. So apologies if you came here expecting some serious science or news or something.

Impressive! :)

Er zijn zelf remote controlled versies daarvan te koop die je kan besturen via je smartphone (klik) :)
