Several fairly new technologies combine to make something pretty neat -Christmas lights in the sky! Ascending Technologies programmed a drone with LEDs to perform a precise dance in the air, while taking long-exposure photographs and video. You can see how long the exposure is by the movement of the stars in the picture above.

The Drone Light Painting Video is world’s first drone light painting project of that quality.

After some testing all the light painting flights could be performed quite quickly and fully automated.
