Like a propeller, new drone spins too fast for the human eye to see clearly. It’s about 10 times less visually perceptible than a conventional quadcopter.
Mount the camera anywhere and just time the framerate to the spin rate. Going to need some sensor capable of quick capture speeds with high ISO to avoid blur.
Well I’m also curious about how to mount a camera, sounds tricky. And if you do use some kind of swivel mount for a stable camera, well that breaks the whole “invisible” thing. Although alternatively, you could just mount it spinning, take 360 degree video.
But to be clear this was human designed with some AI assistance. I think it’s a bit insulting to call this “AI designed”, that took skilled engineers.
Yes they did provide the spec, algos, models etc but I was specifically referring to the design:
“The design process was fully automated,” Rubenstein said. “Then, when we were confident that a drone met all our criteria, we built it.”
I didn’t mean it as a slur, just a quick descriptor. I don’t think there have been any considerations towards practical use (eg. vision, directionality, control, sound), which is why I called it a toy.
Two things, how do you mount a camera, and how do you control it if there’s no front.
So far, it’s an AI-designed toy.
