It probably has a cheap camera with transmitter so that operator can se where the drone is flying and a dslr to capture high quality photos for further intelligence gathering.
- throwaway4good 5y agoHow does the operator control the camera? There has to be some sort of on-board computer and an interface between that and the camera.
- 2000UltraDeluxe 5y agoSome of the higher-end cameras have ethernet ports, Wifi and Bluetooth. Not sure what the remote capabilities are, but remote-controlled shutters should be fairly easy.
- throwaway4good 5y agoYeah. But it requires an onboard computer with USB and WIFI which is not shown, and actually is kind of interesting. How does the computer link back to the operator? Is there bandwidth enough to send hires photos from the camera back?
- 2000UltraDeluxe 5y agoThis sub-thread was about speed cameras. I'd assume law enforcement agencies have some network they can hook the cameras up to. As for the drone in the video, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a Raspberry Pi with a 4G modem, or some other remote networking option connected to it, somewhere inside it (or something of a similar hacky nature).
- yetihehe 5y agoProbably the computer is on that stack of boards which presenter deemed "uninteresting".
