I really and truly can NOT imagine WHY I would need to know this stuff. Heck, I still write snail mail with a fountain pen. Sure I write emails too and message ( feebly ) with with my kids and grandkids, but I'd still rather actually write on paper.
I hate drones, not into writing programs, nor inventing anything ( I'd rather companies would brings back stuff and products that are no longer made ) so there's that. But for others, I'm certain this IS of interest and something they can and shall use.
At age 70, I'm no longer capable of climbing a ladder safely, nor inclined to crab walk the crawl spaces to locate a possible leak or nasty smell from a decaying varmint, so the prospect of using a small drone with a video camera to go to those places intrigues me.
Just a small list of items where a small quadcopter drone will find beneficial use:
A quick visual check of my roof and gutters.
Harassing and attacking carpenter bees.
Inspecting my low attic space for evidence of roof leaks.
Under the bed fly through searching for lost socks and dust bunnies. As well as under my vehicles.
Exercising the dogs when my back is acting up... and maybe cobbling together a pooper scooper. ;>)
All this without having to program an arduino or raspberry pi... though I'm intrigued by the idea.
I welcome my little minions dedicated to doing my bidding.
Just imagine, calling them all forth at reveille, assemble for inspection, command them to drop and do 100 jump ups while I sip my coffee and grin.
