Quadcopters come in all different shapes and sizes, with most of them skewing on the large side. The MeCam goes small — tiny enough to fit in the palm of your hand — and brings a few neat tricks with it.
The MeCam (not to be confused with this other product with the same name) is as barebones as a quadcopter gets. Its four tiny propellers carry a module with a 1GHz or 1.5GHz ARM processor, 1GB of RAM, SD card, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a camera. MeCam also has 14 real-time sensors to keep it from collisions, two auto-pilot algorithms and a video stabilizer by Morpho to create “perfect” panoramas.
