Times of India reports that if you present people with a new, exciting technology, chances are they will use it to take photographs of themselves. Take drones, those hovering, helicopter-like flying devices that the military has used for years and that are slowly, in miniaturized form, finding their way into the consumer world. Over the last few years, drones have been finding jobs in industry. They are used for gathering news, checking crops on farms, as well as photographing houses for real estate agents, and drones may one day deliver packages to consumers who just can't wait for the truck. In India, for example, one pizza company has used drones to deliver pizza to customers. Yet mainstream users have had trouble figuring out where an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) fits into their lives. Among the first mainstream uses for drones could be airborne selfies, dronies.
Imagine drones for consumers. You could have your SUV and UAV in your driveway. Would city authorities allow widespread use of consumer or commercial drones?
