Shooting With a Camera Drone Made Easy

Michael Zhang’s article on PetaPixel covers the details of Lily, the robotic camera drone referred to as the world’s first throw-and-shoot camera. If you love action and extreme sports – or if you just like the idea of taking aerial photos without having to pilot the drone, take a look at the awesome video below.

Using the Lily involves keeping a tracking device on the subject you’d like Lily to follow, throwing the Lily high into the air, and then going about your activity while Lily flies and shoots all by itself. Lily will use GPS and computer vision to follow you at up to 25mph and keep you in the center of the frame.
