I'm Kyle and you're watching Drone TV.
Skip Fredris, well you just saw a bunch of drones dancing so it's really cool and now we're gonna find out from the guy how he made him do this.
So who are you and tell us what happened here?
So we're a drone business company, we're a French company located in Bordeaux and we're creating shows for whatever entertainment, advertising or whatever people can ask
and what could make sense of course.
So what did we just see here? How does this happen? You're obviously the only guy here so it's not like there's five pilots.
Exactly, how do we take us through this?
Sure, so the drones of course there are no pilots behind, you can even have a look behind the big wall, you won't see four pilots to control them.
Everything is pre-programmed and it uses a vision tracking system that looks downwards and you see the carpet, you know, and at that point the drone looks underneath,
it sees the form, the shape and say okay I know where I am and what is the next order where I need to go to and what is the time frame that I need to use to go to that point.
You just chain those orders and you obtain a choreography, of course you rotate the drones and those kind of things and that's it.
Yeah but you know what, the drones were flying very close together and obviously there's got to be a latency, how precise is this?
This software has got to be pretty precise, so do the drones too, any particular reason why they're Parrot?
Well, why they're Parrot is just because Parrot is our partner, that's a good reason and also because this drone is quite agile as well.
I can fly, you know, and move very quickly and brutally move the direction, so that's an interesting machine as well to work with.
And the second thing is this is very precise, you can have a precision, it's a centimeter precision.
Of course the faster you control the drones and the faster they go, of course they will overshoot, in that case that can become a danger for all of them,
to respect some security measures and security distances, but if they fly normally with low speeds, in that case they can be quite close,
something like, let's say, 50 centimeters and it will be fine, they will be safe.
So how do people, where can we see more of the videos of the drone dancing? Do you guys have a website, social media, things like that?
I think that the best way to find us is to go on YouTube and to type in Flying Bebop and you will see several videos that we did at Britain's Got Talent this year,
and you will see the panel of shows that we have, and if you're interested of course you will find www.FindBebop.com on which you will find everything.
What was your name? You didn't sell it?
What was your name? My name is Eric.
This is Eric. So there you go, Flying Drones from the Consumer Electronic Show, Skip Fredericks, I'm out of here, DroneTV, Talking Drones, see ya.
