Up, up and away. A team at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California, has succeeded in launching 50 drones that were all controlled by a single person.
“To our knowledge, this is a world record for the number of UAVs under single operator control, by quite a long way,†says project lead Kevin Jones.
The team aims to develop swarming behaviours that give the benefits of having multiple drones without the need for a large number of operators.
