New WowWee indoor copter is "autonomous"

Posted by Chris Anderson on January 6, 2008 at 7:25am

At CES WowWee introduced the semi-autonomous micro indoor "Bladestar" copter, which uses IR sensors to stay away from celings, walls and, they claim, people. More, including video, at Gizmodo. Hackable?

WowWee also announce Rovio, a wheeled webcam bot that uses the same Evolution Robotics NorthStar system that we're using on our blimp UAV for localization.
