- This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In 2014 drones are more accessible than ever, to the level that a camera-equipped flying toy can be bought readily and anonymously for $100 online. But as the popularity of this technology grows so does the backlash - much of it rooted in valid concerns about privacy, accountability, and the disruption of established social patterns. We will take a quick look at the roots of this technology and present a perspective on how it became so accessible, and take a look at some potential ways to integrating widespread aerial photography into civil life while minimizing disruption.
Sergei Lupashin created the Fotokite, an easy to use, accessible tethered flying camera. Recently presented at TED2014, the Fotokite allows anyone from archaeologists to fire fighters to snowboarders to access birds-eye perspectives and record events and memories without the complexities of traditional UAVs.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
With the way the government is over reaching it's bounds set forth by "we the people" and the far left communist agenda, we may wind up having to go this rout. I have recently thought of getting rid of the motor on one of my RC planes and make into an RC kite. I don't know that it would fly (not sorry for the pun ;o) with the FAA as a kite but it should work OK.
