When you hear the word “drone,” you probably think of something either very useful or very scary. But could they have aesthetic value? Autonomous systems expert Raffaello D’Andrea develops flying machines, and his latest projects are pushing the boundaries of autonomous flight — from a flying wing that can hover and recover from disturbance to an eight-propeller craft that’s ambivalent to orientation … to a swarm of tiny coordinated micro-quadcopters. Prepare to be dazzled by a dreamy, swirling array of flying machines as they dance like fireflies above the TED stage.

First Synchronous Drone Display
Here i am now watching after 5 years 😁
Who else is watching this video after 5 years. 😅
I don’t know what I’m missing. I’m not impressed at all, these seem not very different from regular toys coupled with software, this isn’t very advanced. The software is the star here, not the drone tech which is ancient.
just dont create flying saw mini robots, i don’t have a crowbar to spare
This video makes me think of the honey bee. An organism with only about a million neurons and a genetic package capable of driving the bee through life from egg to pupae to worker bee that has unfolding responsibilities over time. A microscopic package of wet AI computing that is light years ahead of where we are now. There is the international project to map the human brain. Are they crazy? The honey bee is where they should start.
It is just like a magic show, except there weren’t any tricks – it’s REAL MAGIC.
