Do you like to think about how cool it would be to fly? A group of researchers at Zhejiang University in China has developed a way to harness those thoughts, turning them into control signals for a real flying Quadcopter.
FlyingBuddy2 is a camera-equipped quadcopter that can fly over objects, capturing pictures and video from a unique perspective. A series of basic thoughts control its movements, while specific actions like blinking four times will activate the camera. To control the ‘copter, the brain-generated signals are read by headset and transferred via Bluetooth to a laptop, then relayed from the laptop to the quadcopter using Wi-Fi.
