https://interestingengineering.com/samsung-files-patent-for-drone-that-can-be-controlled-by-eyes
According to a newly approved patent application, Samsung's latest flying display can detect the face and eyes of a person. It is also designed to have voice-recognition capabilities as well as GPS and a Wi-Fi-based positioning system.
Samsung has a patent for a drone with a display that can detect the face and pupils of a person in addition to their hand gestures and position. The patent has a unit that features a display at the center with four propellers on each corner.
The patent talks about an integrated drone which will include a camera and an observation system to send information to the main control unit. The system is designed to follow the users’ eyes, head, hands, or fingers in real time.
The drone’s speed and direction in flight can be controlled by moving the head, eyes, or hands. The unit is also planned to automatically track users without any additional gestures.
============================================================
Incredible system. It just crossed my mind that such gadgets could be weaponized by soldiers or terrorists. Fly right into a certain window or into the compressor blades of a landing jet aircraft.
