When you hear the word "drone," you probably think of something either very useful or very scary. But could they have aesthetic value? Autonomous systems expert Raffaello D'Andrea develops flying machines, and his latest projects are pushing the boundaries of autonomous flight - from a flying wing that can hover and recover from disturbance to an eight-propeller craft that's ambivalent to orientation ... to a swarm of tiny coordinated micro-quadcopters. Prepare to be dazzled by a dreamy, swirling array of flying machines as they dance like fireflies above the TED stage.

Let's take a moment to pay respect to the guy who presented after this
Hey scratch bro ;)
So today we know were UFOs are from...
@@kimun8398 what
@@kimun8398 mhhh meat balls
@@kimun8398 weaponized drones have been a thing for a looong time
- Small
- Operates while injured
- Operates no matter the rotation
Well... Run
Soez the flying lamp was cool looking
@@nsr5961 Yeah, they can get asleep your kids 😉
That's a fucking help in your everyday's life.
Let's stop buying some Toys are Us's bullshits !
Playskool, Mattel, Ravensburger and all these craps.
And the best in this find is that you can watch your sweet angel from you cellphone.
good advice
Seems need to take bigger caliber after this
Can’t wait for them to heal themselves 🙈
The open mouthed awe on the faces of the audience says it all. Brilliantly presented.
That bricks and ropes construction, a huge economic potency with correct applications...
@Dying Fetus REDUX What about 'juicero'? I don't see how a juicer appliance relates to using drones to braid cords together.
Imagine showing these machines to the wright brothers or DaVinci
You mean Santos Dumont
You’re looking at the modern day wright brothers and da Vinci
Imagine showing this to never contacted tribes around the world.
would be strikingly similar to ufo sightings back in the 60s
The future is now old mens
This is not the first time that a Ted Talk has left my mouth agape nor will it be the last.
this was truly amazing such an innovative technology. The world of tech is really progressing.
first application will be total control of every population, so.."thanks"... techies never see the road ahead very well do they...
+KOBKED-X in your opinion
No one sees the road ahead when they're immersed in the application of an idea. That's an innate characteristic of humans, not techies.
Seth Woodard who’s Ted? Does your girl know?
3:00 the guy in red shirt thinking i wanna get it for Christmas
I thought drones were cool before, just for camera shots and light displays... but after watching this...the applications that can be achieved with these machines are truly staggering! My mind has gone overboard with ideas!
Idea: attacking and killing unpredictably any enemy.
Idea: carrying stuff instead of couriers or post officers.
Other ideas..?
@@t.me_s_petizioni_2220 first idea has been used in practice for decades at this point

Clap now. Run for your lives later
One reason need motors still have to learn how to change gravity where you want. Just think make human weight zero or a rock windup cars that can go up hills.
Hahahaha
Terry Watkins lol. We are one in our minds.not many can see what you feel..they see wonder I see death for wonder with out God is death.sumit all to God his logic is undeniable even if he created destruction we know without doubt a greater good will come furthermore the greater the destruction the greater the good that will follow..trust in God and God alone
Funny
it's crazy how people beg for robots then they're scared of them.
3:03
Me throughout the talk.
Ruthwik Rao I
hehehe
HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!
Ruthwik Rao I don't even have to look. It's man with mouth open! HA HA.
Same
So if this is 5 years ago,wonder what they have now..
.Happy New year 2021 🎇
P.T.onfire They have these “slaughterbots” ruclips.net/video/9fa9lVwHHqg/видео.html
The company now: veritystudios.com/
hopefully something for the corona
We have coronavirus
have a look at VERITY drones, used in stage production
6:48, there's Linus Torvalds sitting and laughing
Imagine showing these machines to the wright brothers or DaVinci
3:04 that guy’s expression says it all.
He got paid to do that
His team is not diverse enough.
His expression is overdramatic and his red color clothes says everything about his dramatic personality.
That he-she male women had their mouth open like an dummy.
@@deterministicatheos5540 damn, i read this in a hillbilly accent - sounds niiice)))
Imagine theatrical performance with this technology, amazing.
it would be cool to use the last one in as a planetarium to map out the night sky with drones, or even replicate the solar system and show the orbits of the planets
We're gonna need better battery technology first or you won't enjoy your mini solar system for too long
KiAb0n0V like the grand finale of a broadway musical using the micro-drones and creating a 3D night sky 😍 or even fireworks!
KiAb0n0V how about the Pepsi commercial known as the Super Bowl???
You should see the 2017 sea game kuala lumpur opening ..they have drones fly just like this
That's 5 years ago...i did not know about it.
Really impressive
I can totally see the micro-swarms making appearances at concert halls as part of the light show.
Metallica used these swarms on their Hardwired Tour when they played Moth into Flame
Happened at the Olympics this year
Yeah they already have some great drone light shows at like new years eve celebrations and such.
For some reason, and I don't know why, I just lost it when the people were looking at the drone, following while it was flying around. Reminds me of cats watching birds.
they were surprised ... like a cat following birds.... XD
Yes. HAHAHAHAHA
Lol
What a ridiculous thing to say! ............. Of course they were looking up at the drones, that' what the seminar was about!
No doubt you're the sort of guy that would be texting on your mobile instead of paying attention!
TURK
let's make the people dumber and dumber till they can't tie a rope!....... only the foolish go on with it... we must invest in the books with knowledge instead of the digital knowledge
Imagine the flying light show with MUSIC *o*
I would pay money to see a show with these
4:48
I have to say, that is an absolutely ingenious use of spin stabilization.
Five years later and still watching!
That's some Gandalf-level magic right there.
Imagine commanding these with a wand!
I'm drooling in my nerd cave right now.
Wow! I was thinking of Gandalf too, at the end!
why dont i see this on the news.....thats right......it's positive and inspiring.
+geordi rendum the kim Kardashian show was put on tv because "reality tv" is cheap to produce,no other reason.....and now she influences thousands of women to be as shallow and facile as her self........sigh....she has got a good body butt...........
Ed Pritchard there's loads of fantastic stuff going on that most people are unaware of. Here's one of my favourites
www.reactionengines.co.uk/
Probably then they wouldn't be able to fool the citizens of the world when they lie and say we're being invaded. Hahaha
Ed Pritchard because it's not fake?
+Ed Pritchard That, dear friend, is the most true comment I've ever read on youtube
I love the number of "jaws on the floor" on this one!
It all looks amazing until you imagine a guy with a star on his hat adding thermal sensors, facial recognition & a laser cannon. And in reality that’s the eternal shadow of geniuses like Rafaelo - the shadow they never seem to notice until its way too late.
I love the whisper at 3:21 like "Okay, you did a good job. Now rest"
+Dreamwalker Films I thought I was the only one that saw this! I was thinking... are they speaking to him?! haha
Am I the only one who expected the swarm bots to spell out TED?
What a fail, huh?
me too
Yeah, missed opportunity
No, i was expecting it too :)
I was thinking that too!
3:04 that guy is dumbfounded. love his amazed face. mine was similar
I am a witness to such an unbelievable yet stunning presentation. This is the future. Hats off!
Lol. Check out red shirt guy at 3:03. Truly the single greatest highlight of this video...well...aside from the incredible show of engineering and technology of course. :)
that's gay!
😲
3:02 - Dude in the red shirt: “We’re doomed..”
You see that
Robert Murphy it be nice if propellers were silent.
hahahaha
Cool Chinese toys bro
@@nsr5961 So that we don't check out when they come to shoot us!!
Anybody else saw Linus Torvald in the crowd smiling after the cute drone demo?
I am so glad able to see this during my lifetime.
Ye
6:46 Linus Torvalds in the crowd 😮
And he is laughing :-)
Oh boy.
@@MrMoneyHelper fuuny thing is that those machines do probably operate on linux
It’s his twin brother he works at McDonald’s
I'll be damned hawkeye!
06:45 - Linus Torvalds
Great Observation
Saw him as well and stopped the video to read comments to see if I was right, thanks :)
moveaxebx the first one I was in a level 29 the
眼神真好
Indeed
The swarm soo mesmerizing,
and horrifying at the same time
yes especially when they turn off those decorative lights.. invisible swarm :D how "nice"!
They’re like fireflies which are almost extinct nowadays.
Wow. Just that video of the drones building a rope bridge! Amazing!
Damn, the last demonstration blew my mind, it was breathtaking !
3:03 "Ooooooohhhhwww. That's amwazing!" *Continues to gape at funny flying thing*
+Crispy Bacon hahaha that guy made me die laughing
also he has Mel Gibson by the right hand
5:58 "can be learned on the fly" Haha I see what he did there!
He lost the opportunity to say "literally"
Such a nice demonstration in different ways to explore your creative things and thoughts
This was the best TED video in forever and a half.
Mr. D'Andrea is such an articulate, inspiring speaker. I'm always excited to see new videos from him.
Are you still excited?
He is skynet.
3:05 literally my reaction the entire time
The drone swarm is both amazing and terrifying. I saw another vid in which a presenter said that using 3 grams of a shaped explosive charge and facial recognition software, a swarm could be released into a building or anywhere really and hunt down an individual or a group of people. They might be terrorists, people shooting up a school or just any group you, or your government doesn't happen to like. It's all a bit spooky really.
Yo, that last one was seriously so fucking dope!
That was one of the most wounderfull examples of flying machines I have ever seen , thank you .
Thank you so much for the update ...
So rad. Thanks for this video, TED
I like all the TED Talks, but it's nice to see it get back to its premise.
This is amazing. I feel like a child again.
Kind of creepy how the RUclips algorithm took me here after watching the Slaughterbots video o_O
3:02 The guy in the red shirt is so blown away by this lmao
I do not know why, but the swarm demonstration brought me to tears. It's just such an awesome display of human ingenuity and engineering applications that just prove what we as a species are capable off.
Too bad that the swarms will and already are being planned for warfare…
"off " has been wanted.
But of course coz we’re human we’re gonna use them for war
Of
Emotional pansie.
I'm going to go ahead and say this: I'd like a pet drone.
+kallistiX1 Haha man, yeah ! The future
Maybe that's what Anki's next Cozmo gonna be
Exceptionally impressive, yet terrifying at the same time.
@Plumpkin gtg someone with bad intentions could do some pretty bad thinks
especially with this kind of technology
@Plumpkin gtg Imagine one with a small explosive on it. Imagine 1000 of them with the same. It seems that hitting a targeted individual becomes much easier.
@@Pimsalabim1 Someone with bad intentions? Let's say... anyone.
I feel this life is a gift with this performance.
I like how he said ''ok"' to them drones as if they are kids as part of their show, proves that he truly appreciates these things more than a machine
agreed
"That'll do, Drones. That'll do."
.
. and
But it's ONLY a machine that will never be more impressive than a human being and it's blowing my mind that so many human beings are so impressed with machines
@@rodzinireal4171 that's the dumbest fucking thing I've heard
the flying lamp shade was like wow wow
6:45 Linus thinks about: "I bet they are using linux?"
Omg nailed it
The swarm is awesome. Could be a new form of light art......beauty
This trailer for the next season of Black Mirror looks great!
Wow, I was literally one comment from yours, and was thinking Black Mirror right before I read your comment.
William Lobach 😂
Simply WOW! Especially the swarm demo at the end! Mesmerizing!
the last one are incredible, wow
Thank you very much for the inspiration!
This is why I enjoyed R/C flight as a kid back in the 1980's
3:02 I love that guy's expression....
:-O
Wow, that’s fantastic! I see so many practical, public service applications for these as well as celebrations and art installations and theatrical performances. How lovely would it be to have a cluster of firefly drones above such important life events as a birthday, a wedding, or a celebration of life ceremony after a loved one has passed. 😌✨
I’ve seen video of thousands of mini drones doing a show that kinda replaces fireworks. This presentation was seven years ago! You would think being amazed by this technology would be common place lol.
Best TED Talk I've ever seen.
And was that Linus Torvalds in the audience?
he is the one responsible all the UFO sigthings
Now it is IFO
Hmm, unidentified flying objects or unidentified aerial phenomena has been around for thousands of years.
Wow this man is literally made ufo
My mother saw a UFO near Mt.Gambier Sth-Australia in the late 1960's... the demonstrator wasnt even born or thought of back then! LOL!
Not this idiotic bs again...I suppose humans invented this technology in the middle ages too. The government really knows how to hide a secret, huh...
*BEST TED TALK EVER!!!*
- only reads picture books.
It would be great to apply this to actual aircraft for mid flight recovery from disasters
PQP ! INCRÍVEL ! Parabéns pela demonstração !
6:47 is that Linus Torvalds in the front?
+GeFlixes I've guessed the same
+GeFlixes I was about to post the same thing!
Oh crap I think you're right...
+GeFlixes Yes. Nice catch!
Yes I saw him too!
I, for one, welcome our new drone overlords.
+Chris V THE ROBOTS ARE TAKING OVER
I want a drone that calls me master and cooks...
Ant
+Robert “watches anime to much” Schalk good luck!
+ighrwu with?
GREAT JOB. NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE
It's beautiful. Thank you.
So we have advanced to the flying lamp shade, nice!
Well said. lol
Seeing the mini drones flying in formation makes me think of "Batteries Not Included "
Correct, those do not have a long flight time. We do not have the battery technology needed for a long flight time. However big drones have been used at night to fly in many formations with a pretty light source. They are indeed fascinating to look at.
Other People: Black Mirror- Hated in the Nation
loved the " Borg cube "! overkill.
the lamp shade flies like a UFO.
the swarm is awesome & scary.
2:06 Instead of a group of people I imagine...
... a group of cats
You made me actually laugh out loud. Congratulations.
Also, thanks to the person who liked this, you made me remember this and laugh again.
This is the first thing that i thought if when i saw that
6:46 Linus Torvalds in the audience.
+tjpld it sure looks like it! I was thinking the same thing as I was watching it!
Yeah, noticeable person.
I thought I was the only one to notice!
I already thought about it.. :)
3:03 the guy in the red is amazed 😂😂
I feel a whole new load of UFO sightings coming on!
Hugo Stiglitz
Exactly my thought.
what do you think they were before drones became public? lol those were the prototypes
Sure, any light in the sky becomes a UFO, like the flares in Phoenix !
This why X Files should go into season 12 and 13
.
Swarm was just amazing i am also working on swarm coordination optimization
Imagine how our interaction with this technology will inspire other technologies to look through the same lens but a different perspective. Perspective will give us the engine that will propell us through concepts and theories that will manifest in our real world perspective...Perspective is everything!
Isn't that Linus Torvalds sitting in the crowd at 6:44?
Yes it is!
For 4 mln views only 8 people saw this. And those 8 people are brilliant IT related guys :D .
yes, and he's loving it.
that finale was in desperate need of music. any music.
+makingnoises The 5 tones!
Yes that's what I was thinking the whole time!!
+makingnoises meh, it was a demonstration, not a show.
It will be at all the rock concerts next year
+makingnoises this is exactly what i was thinking!! Maybe some epic music like the Star wars theme woulda fit prefectly!!
6:45 dude now this video is most precious
Loved the audience reaction 😅
& It was a four-year-old technology
Love ted talks they are always very eye opening thanks for bring this subject and helping us to understand a bit better about it :) fully watched and liked. thanks Autonomous systems expert Raffaello D'Andrea.
3:03 red shirt guy XD : wtf man
😂😂😂👌
😲
Spot the engineer from competing company 🤣
@@ewthmatth when it's your turn to present after talk
D:
loved it awesome spacial geometric motion programming awesome dynamics and coordination
TED videos, in my opinion are the best videos on the net, stimulation for curious intelligent minds, time spent watching TED videos is time well spent.
The tiny things at the end could be used to make massive "holographic" displays.
8:36 very impressive, spectacular display of flying mini machines
Check out Intels video
Stunning work
wow man...made my life..
Nice one Subscribed...Keep'em comin....
dude. TED. give a guy like this an 18 minute slot. what the heck?
nah, gotta save that time for something more important, like feminism.
+weesh ful they dont care as much about technology than other the other stuff
geordi rendum They care about the fluff rather than the stuff.
+weesh ful
If you are truly interested in longer talk, a quick Google search of his name, "Raffaello D'Andrea", will lead you to a 16 minute TED talk recorded in June 2013. It covers some of the control theory behind the automated systems.
Also, I'm pretty sure they don't time the speakers or restrict them beyond making sure that their talks don't go over an hour long.
David Boucard oooh, thanks I'll check that out.
and I'm pretty sure they do give them strict time limits. the 18 minute slot typically being the longest they allow. TEDx are a bit more flexible, but the normal TEDs are pretty rigid.
6:44 Linus Torvalds?
+scarletovergods I've noticed too)
Андрей Мишин Me too
I've spot it too
Forget Wally, find Linus
That ending speech though 👏👏
The flying lamp is so cool. It serves as source of light and as a fan 😂
