DJI SPARK
The only thing exciting in technology these days are drones. Besides block-chain of course !!
DJI just announced this fantastical new drone called SPARK that comes in 5 colors
The colors are pretty and the small built is definitely attention grabbing. But the magic happens when you wave at it :D
Specs
This drone is TINY and costs about $500 USD. Shoots HD video - 1080p and 12 MP photos
Has a flight time of about 16 minutes on one charge at speeds upto 31 mph.
Not super high - rez but for a drone this size that can fly by waving your had at it, $500 is a STEAL
Spark has intelligent features for fight controls like ActiveTrack and TapFly, which are present in the top of the line Phantom 4 ( not my favorite because of the size)
You can fly the drone with gesture controls which basically means you will become a drone Jedi!
Let's wave
If you make a "picture frame" gesture Spark takes a photo for you.
Spark follows your hand so you can direct it from the ground while shooting.
When you are done shooting just wave at it and stretch out your hands and Spark will land on your palms !!
Your phone or remote stays in your pocket the whole time!!
!
The only catch is that extra batteries, charger's , remote and extra propellers come in a bundle of $200.
Still quite fascinating at $700.
If you live in the US or Europe you can get this by Mid June.
