Skydio 2 drone ups the ante in obstacle avoidance

Techstination feature for Tuesday, August 31, 2021

Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.    The Skydio 2 drone has arrived…bringing the best crash proof technology we’ve seen to date.   It features an amazing six cameras to ensure it avoids most obstacles.   But keep in mind…wires and thin tree branches can still present problems.   The magnetically attached battery with USB-C charging is literally a snap.  The videos and images are very good quality….but the real magic is the ease of having the Skydio 2 follow you…walking, running, biking…and more…from any angle you choose.   And other cinematic effects are easy too.    CEO Adam Bry..

“Skydio 2 is a fully autonomous drone.   You can launch it from your hand and it will use computer vision to recognize and track objects.”

Skydio 2 delivers on the promise.  The great tech isn’t cheap…starting at about 13 hundred dollars.
