Sometimes when a technology arrives it is already perfect. There will still be room for development, but on day one the iPhone was a great example of a leap forward. There are other times when things over-reach and being at the beginning of the curve. That, I'd guess, is what a home security autonomous drone is going to be!
Yet Sunflower Labs are making a good deal of noise about their drone-based 'Beehive System', in which an autonomous drone takes off from a special box, follows an aerial survey route – a patrol – before automatically landing in the robotic box. It then closes the lid on the drone and charges. This human-free security patrol is charged at $5 per hour.
