The video is titled, “Quadrotor Autonomous Flight and Obstacle Avoidance with Kinect Sensor” but it really should be called, “Human enslavement drone gen1.” Autonomously moving around a predetermined track and using the Kinect as a 3D radar to track and avoid objects is already complete. Weaponizing is likely in the works for the next implementation, followed by self-replication and swarm intelligence. This kicks the pants off the Kinect shadow puppets hack. [via Engadget]
