Probably the coolest iPhone-related product to come out of the festivities at CES so far this week is the AR.Drone, created by a company called Parrot. It's a little working microcopter that's remote-controlled by an iPhone app, and it's decked out with all sorts of interesting gadgetry, including an accelerometer, gyroscope, and two cameras. A key feature is Wi-Fi integration, so the AR.Drone can actually be controlled by any Wi-Fi device, not just an iPhone.
Release is rumored to happen as early as March of this year, although the product itself is still somewhat surrounded in mystery. Apparently the drone has an "autofly" setting, in which it'll follow certain visual stimuli in the environment, and it apparently also watches the floor for flight stabilization. The features go even further than that, with the cameras on the real-life drone providing an augmented reality game feed (like shooting robots around your house as you explore with the drone) back to the iPhone.

I want not approve on it. I assume nice post. Particularly the title attracted me to review the intact story.
Genial dispatch and this post helped me alot in my college assignement. Say thank you you as your information.
Opulently I acquiesce in but I about the collection should acquire more info then it has.
Utter bullshit! You're telling me the helicopter works via wifi? Yeah right! Unless they've suddenly managed to make ultra lightweight wifi receivers with the required battery and range of distance then I'd suck my dogs cock!
Okay - I'm now sucking my dogs cock!
