Even 15 years ago they were super impressed but still very iffy about man portable systems that could fly a set path & return to home on their own.

I’m a fpv drone pilot and the drones I fly can do pretty amazing things like flipping through a gap or diving down a waterfall. And speeds up to 120 miles per hour. Drones truly are an amazing new thing.
This is mind blowing, especially when you have knowledge in control method, microprocessors, image processing and embedded systems. I can't even imagine the work behind these little machines.
we use AI in drones now thanks to raspberry pis getting powerful enough in the last few years to run more complicated OS like windows you can basically make mechanical bugs like wasps that swarm and communicate with modern drones

Amazing. I felt as if the drones had a life of their own. It really was exciting to see them in action interacting with the human and each other. Even though choices are for the good of humanity.
there are lots af drones that are as impressive if not more impressive than this, ie drones with gimbals, drones that use gps and sattelites, drones a human can fly in, etc 👍

+Jeff z This works by having several cameras up in the ceiling and some fairly powerful computers doing the visual processing. You can see several Kinects and HD cameras up in the rafters. The balls on the drones are reference points for the cameras so the computer can see the orientation of each quadcopter.
This is a masterpiece of engineering. It's really difficult to understand completely the whole thing about control theory and modeling something but you combined all of them in this project. Impressive
I remember when I first saw this stuff and I wanted to write my own software and build my own. I looked around and bought a very old frame kit, I eventually got an Rpi style computer for a controller and by the time I finally got motors and tried to begin programming it all flight controllers had become common and drone racing was taking off. I said screw it all I understand the theory and started looking at building. Now I've got a few built that died and one on the bench and now bind and fly's are cheap and seem to be the way to go over building. Finally decide to go the bind and fly route and I see now the whoop class drones are the big thing. Boy time really does fly like crazy once you hit 35+.
7 Years back I saw this video and amazed about the engineering I am going to see in the future but now a days we all are fighting to survive on mother earth as COVID-19 is all over the place.
After 10 years this is still one of the most viewed videos on the channel. It is necessary to remind those who are watching it and who may be laughing that these machines were created for military purposes to kill human beings.
Easy there, joyless qwertyIUD. It is necessary to remind you that your point applies to all technologies - from basic tools to the wheel to computers. Haven't you seen 2001 A Space Odyssey? I think the point you're trying to make is one that we can all agree on - violence and aggression are never acceptably. It's time for our species to evolve past hate and fear. Embrace tolerance and cooperation. Open your mind. Prioritize education and health care for everyone. Work for peace. Demand justice. Choose leaders who understand and value these things. Only then will the aliens trust us enough to be friends.
+JE ENN Technically you can use a GoPro or any camera capable of recording 360 video and mount it in a first person view position... You can then use a VR headset to look around :D I'm doing an internship on UAV designs and hopefully I'll be able to do something similar by the end :)
forgottenmemories63 One must rememer that the algorithms are mostly ased of of machine learning, meaning that the coding process isn't as huge of a task as it sounds.
0:22 So what does it mean for a machine to be athletic? We will demonstrate the concept of machine athleticism and the research to achieve it with the help of these flying machines called quadrocopters, or quads, for short. Quads have been around for a long time. They're so popular these days because they're mechanically simple. By controlling the speeds of these four propellers, these machines can roll, pitch, yaw, and accelerate along their common orientation. On board are also a battery, a computer, various sensors and wireless radios. Quads are extremely agile, but this agility comes at a cost. They are inherently unstable, and they need some form of automatic feedback control in order to be able to fly.
Wow here I am watching this in 2020, seven years after the video was posted, and these amazing quadcopter feats look futuristic. One can only speculate about the evolution of this technology, till date.
These machines are amazing,just like the brains that humans can expand the use of a machine that acts like a human,and reacts in mili-seconds . have three of these. One with real time,and upgraded advancements to test and evaluate such a awsome hobby too.Worth the money for curious minds.
After having watched this video (2019), I decided what I wanted to study and do in life: Control Theory. I am following this dream: I am currently a 2nd Year Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Student😁😅.
And we make a big army of them controlled by someone in front of microsoft kinect playing a game destroy them all... He won't even know that he started WWIII as a player :D
@@TheCentaury I mean your ideal is basically the plot of Ender's Game, only the "enemy" is an alien species. The Earth's military starts a special program to train children specifically as officers for space combat. But the final "exam" turns out to be real, the kids (around 15 by that point) think it's a simulation, but the whole time they are actually commanding an attack group against the aliens. When Ender (main character) realizes it they all kinda freak out, specifically because they realize they just ordered thousands of humans to die. Worse yet, it turns out the aliens aren't even bad, the whole thing was propaganda that the government created to cover up their shady business.... You should maybe check it out, it's a decent story. The books are slightly better than the movie, mostly cause the movie cuts and condenses quite a bit and it makes the time scale of events a little weird, but still a decent film....
Wow, I'm watching this in 2020 and it is still very impressive. I fly drones and it took no effort to learn to fly. I have this same technology with a 4k cameras for under 2k.
This was in 2013!! Honestly, this is why we need to keep ourselves informed about this while informing others so that amazing things like this get more public knowledge and therefore a bigger budget

forgottenmemories63 One must rememer that the algorithms are mostly ased of of machine learning, meaning that the coding process isn't as huge of a task as it sounds.
MrFreddfull Oh i see. Well, In that case you might be right, Might not be much.

So what does it mean for a machine to be athletic? We will demonstrate the concept of machine athleticism and the research to achieve it with the help of these flying machines called quadrocopters, or quads, for short.
Quads have been around for a long time. They're so popular these days because they're mechanically simple. By controlling the speeds of these four propellers, these machines can roll, pitch, yaw, and accelerate along their common orientation. On board are also a battery, a computer, various sensors and wireless radios.
Quads are extremely agile, but this agility comes at a cost. They are inherently unstable, and they need some form of automatic feedback control in order to be able to fly.
the reactions are priceless
Saw this vid back when i was like 7 or 8
It was like my favorite vid back then
HOW WAS THIS IN 2013 AND I NEVER KNEW TIL NOW!!
Imagine showing this to someone at the Middle Ages lol
Timerºº Exactly
Black magic, sorcery, the evil spirit is with u!
Samuel Yang It's a witch, burn it!
+Timerºº haha
Does it HUUURT?
That was seriously awesome. Nice work!! Serious potential there for all sorts of tasks. Very interesting.
Wow here I am watching this in 2020, seven years after the video was posted, and these amazing quadcopter feats look futuristic. One can only speculate about the evolution of this technology, till date.
These machines are amazing,just like the brains that humans can expand the use of a machine that acts like a human,and reacts in mili-seconds . have three of these. One with real time,and upgraded advancements to test and evaluate such a awsome hobby too.Worth the money for curious minds.

proud to be a viewer
Why has youtube been suggesting me this video for like 5 years straight?
It's almost 2022, and this is still mind-blowing!
Now what have we learned about machines and skynets?
As soon as he said “Skynet” he scared the crap out of me!
this dude: "they are inherently unstable, they need some form of automatic feedback control"
any fpv pilot: "hold my beer"
pretty sure fpv drones have gyro control unit in them
@@KompletterGeist they do. But they can still be unstable because of noise (physical and electrical noise) as well as wind and turbulences
HOLD MY BEER
Yup
@8:51 Try to do that with your fpv pilots.
After having watched this video (2019), I decided what I wanted to study and do in life: Control Theory.
I am following this dream: I am currently a 2nd Year Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Student😁😅.
"Now if we put a weapon on it with thermal sensors..."
And we make a big army of them controlled by someone in front of microsoft kinect playing a game destroy them all... He won't even know that he started WWIII as a player :D
@@TheCentaury Congratulations, you just figured out the plot of Ender's Game, a book from 1985 and a movie from 2013......
@@Astraeus.. you tried something here ?
@@TheCentaury I mean your ideal is basically the plot of Ender's Game, only the "enemy" is an alien species. The Earth's military starts a special program to train children specifically as officers for space combat. But the final "exam" turns out to be real, the kids (around 15 by that point) think it's a simulation, but the whole time they are actually commanding an attack group against the aliens. When Ender (main character) realizes it they all kinda freak out, specifically because they realize they just ordered thousands of humans to die. Worse yet, it turns out the aliens aren't even bad, the whole thing was propaganda that the government created to cover up their shady business....
You should maybe check it out, it's a decent story. The books are slightly better than the movie, mostly cause the movie cuts and condenses quite a bit and it makes the time scale of events a little weird, but still a decent film....
@@Astraeus.. it has nothing to do with my "ideal" and I know the movie. So ... you tried something here ?
Wow, I'm watching this in 2020 and it is still very impressive. I fly drones and it took no effort to learn to fly. I have this same technology with a 4k cameras for under 2k.
I'm really wanting the new MA2.
This was....7 years ago. Imagine what we have now. But that, the public does not know yet!
Army has that technology
absolutely incredible... I have SO MANY QUESTIONS! side note, great that no one physically there is watching this cool stuff through their phone.
I really liked the seemingly random reference to skynet...
15:56 the guy is wearing Google glass :D
Yes, what a disappointing product.
and he thinks he was the coolest guy there😂
but he is one of the developer and an Engineer so he is cool👌🏻
The three quads are collectively carrying.... SKYNET!!! :O
The force is strong with this one...
