Parrot, a producer of wireless devices for mobile phones, revealed the AR.Drone 2.0, the new generation of its renowned high-tech quadricopter that can be controlled by Wi-Fi using a smartphone or tablet.
The latest version of the drone includes a new high-definition camera, video recording, flight data sharing, new piloting mode, increased stability and a brand-new look.
While in flight, the Parrot AR.Drone 2.0’s front camera transmits real-time what the quadricopter sees onto the pilot’s device screen. For the first time the AR.Drone 2.0 camera, with a 1280×720 resolution, shows a view from the sky in high definition with smooth images.
For gaming purposes, this camera can also recognize specific shapes and colours to show augmented-reality elements on the smartphone’s screen.
Thanks to the new AR.FreeFlight 2.0 piloting application, players can record their own HD videos and watch them or share them with the AR.Drone community. Additionally, with the “travelling” feature, the pilot can film HD video sequences like a professional. Simply select the direction of travel (forward, back, sideways) and the duration, and the AR.Drone 2.0 does the rest.
