A drone controlled by bare hands
We were looking in the smart drone category products available on market. This little one got our attention. Looks like it’s part of a Sci-Fi movie. The way you can control it makes you feel like a “Jedi”.
Presenting a new smart drone from DJI: code name – Spark
There are a lot of technical specs for this flying gadget. What we think is worth to mention though, is its capability to respond to your hand gestures. And it also have facial recognition capabilities.
You don’t have a controller or a smartphone available?
Not an issue for Spark. It will take off, move around, take pictures and land only based on your hands gestures. Impressive, isn’t it?
Have a look at this video :
