A new drone shaped like a bird. Chinese developers have shown a new drone made in the shape of a bird.
Such an invention can turn the drone industry upside down.
The drone is able to fly with the help of wing flapping like a real bird and looks the same.
Why not just use birds? Birds fly for free.
They poop on heads though, which is negative points for me.
Didn’t MIT other another Institute created one a few years ago?
Hard to believe that it would have taken till this day for someone to do this, given that birds are the obvious example of flight.
I like how the article starts with China making bird drones and ends with American gun drones. The most American drone.
And the chainsaw drone, the bomb drone, the control drone…
There have been non-drone flapping bird toys for decades(?) Maybe longer? At least since 1969.
“Birds aren’t real” conspiracy theory coming true.
Maybe that was the misunderstanding. Is was never a conspiracy. It was a prophecy.
If it flies it spies.
This is not new at all. Probably 5+ years old
aren’t there already a pigeon, hawk, bat, and bug wing drone?
These are more realistic. I hear they can form a flock and shit all over you. Scary stuff!
yes
r/BirdsArentReal must be going nuts over this.
I bet there going “Guys, real bird is spotted in china, where we wrong?”
But i dislike Reddit to much to go check
This is ages old
Could turn the drone industry upside down
And this would be bad, because now they are just flying into the ground.
Pfft. Everyone knows they already make these. Where do you think “birds” come from, anyway? Nature? smh.
Birds? You mean drones? Birds aren’t real.
Which is why they are slowly admitting they were drones with stuff like this. “Oh look, we made a drone in the shape of a bird!”. Even though it was a drone all along /s
If this were announced in the US, given the number of civillian owned guns in America, birds in the US will soon be extinct.
I KNEW BIRDS WERENT REAL
So many ballistic trajectories, so much falling lead.
So… just another Fourth of July celebration?
But instead, it’s 365/366 day of the year, every year?
This is great news! For the firearms industry, that is. 👀
This seems like it would be ideal for spying on your own citizens. Expect a US version soon - if there isn’t one already, that is.
I don’t think they need to camouflage their cameras so elaborately in the US. US citizens are already painfully oblivious/acclimatized to being surveilled by the government/corporations.
Are you joking? The UK is the home of cctv
True, but the government loves expensive toys.
In contrast to Chinese citizens who are famously free to travel about anonymously and voice any opinion they like about theit government.
