A hexacopter that sees motion and hears breathing, even through walls.

by Laura Domela

The Phoenix 40-A is a new hexacopter from Tia Linx, Inc. that can see motion and hear breathing, even through walls. This little guy can scan buildings for human presence and generate the layout of the building (even multi-story structures), then send that info back to law enforcement or troops before they enter the building.
