Intel Drone Aero

Autonomous flight of Intel® Aero RTF Drone, it can perform its movements without the need of an RC Controller. Autonomous flight can be done because of certain algorithms and programming, available within Intel® Aero Platform creating specialized functions and features, allowing them to perform the tasks we instructed them to do or executing them under their own consent. These skills also allow our Drones to conduct multiple activities that could be difficult or dangerous to any human.
