2009 called it want's its ideas back http://www.skysapience.com/ I can't believe that's really there thinking. What is not already being done right up to the 2018 bar?
I predict that OS hardware and software will be able to match or better their safety or stability claims by 2018. They have an in with the military so no doubt they will be able to sell their innovations there if they look all that exciting to the hobby tinkerer toy market time will tell.
The flying robot game is completely different to the ground robot world of 14 years ago. Way more players way more sexy. Innovation at a way faster rate.
