MIT's Flyfire project: a 3D hovering screen made from a zillion UAVs
You might have heard last week about Flyfire, a MIT concept that would use hundreds or thousands of little coaxial helis with LEDs to create a 3D screen in the sky. There was some confusion and the video was pulled, but now it's back and you can see what all the fuss is about. Pretty cool concept.

I would not want to fill out COA applications for 10,000 of these UAVs, Poor FAA guy that has to approve / reject them... Would they be approved for indoor use only??

At least there's interest in this. It's all Marcy 1 is going to be capable of.
