Researchers use Apple Watch to pilot drone, control HomeKit Hue lamps via hand gestures January 1, 2016 7:54PM Engineering students at Taiwan's National Chung Hsing University demonstrated a clever use of the motion sensors in Apple Watch to interpret hand gestures, enabling them to remotely control real world devices akin to the science fiction fantasy depicted in Star Wars.ar drone parrot autopilot The Force Awakens: use the Dongblack ops 2 qr drone A group of five researchers, including civil engineering PhD student Mark Ven and University professor Yang Ming-der have been working at PVD+ since 2013, developing software they call Dong coding to interpret hand gestures, notes a report by Reuters.ar drone power edition pas cher

Simply wearing an Apple Watch provides enough motion controls--thanks to the device's gyroscope and accelerometers--to allow the researchers to pilot a Parrot AR Drone 3.0 using hand movements, or alternatively turn on Philips Hue HomeKit lamps using a clap, then activate a given color by tracing the outline of a character (such as drawing out a "R" to turn the lamp red).ar drone parrot precio Ven demonstrated using PVD+ software to fly a drone in Taichung City (above), where he was interviewed by Reuters. ar parrot drone kopenVen also demonstrated using Apple Watch to remotely control a Sphero robotic toy and control HomeKit-capable devices.parrot ar drone augmented reality "Previously we've needed complicated controls to fly drones, but now we can use a wearable device, and through human behavior and gestures directly interact with them - using a hand to control and fly drones directly," he said.

Google's YouTube appends a dreadfully annoying 45 second ad on the one minute, 47 second video clip published by Reuters, but you can also watch the video ad-free, albeit using Adobe Flash (above). PVD+ is seeking to patent and commercialize the technology, which appears to be an interesting new application of wearables, an emerging market Apple entered over the past year with Apple Watch, which it rapidly turned into a $7 billion business across its first 9 months on the market. Swiss Watch industry annual sales ~$25 billion. First three quarters of Apple Watch sales ~7 billion..— Ben Bajarin (@BenBajarin) December 31, 2015 Apple has been working on enabling technologies related to hardware motion sensitivity since the iPhone first appeared in 2007 with a proximity sensor, a 3-axis accelerometer (for tilt, motion and bump/shake detection) and WiFi location features. The company subsequently gave iPhone 3G full Global Positioning Satellite support, added a digital compass to iPhone 3GS, and then updated the motion-sensing accelerometer to a 6-axis gyroscope in iPhone 4, capable of determining pitch, yaw and roll (twisting movements).

In addition to making motion sensors available to developers, Apple also began using introducing novel motion gesture applications of its own, including shake-to-shuffle playback on iPod nano and shake to undo in iOS, as well as more sophisticated health and sports related motion tracking managed by HealthKit. Apple has also incorporated novel support for proximity and micro-location sensing with Bluetooth and WiFi related geofencing features, including Continuity HandOff and retail-related iBeacons. Apple has also incorporated sophisticated low-power chip logic for managing motion-related data in its M-series components used in iPhones and iPads, as well as the software frameworks to make background tracking of motion sensor data easier for developers to access and use, once the user gives their apps permissions. In addition to iPods, iOS devices and Apple Watch, Apple has also added basic motion controls to the Siri Remote used by Apple TV 4. January 1, 2016 8:45PM

January 1, 2016 9:38PM edit: I'm not 100% certain, but I do think that's the company from around 2011(?) that had what appeared to be a vaporware-only, CGI-based demo video. I can't seem to find the specific video in question to make sure it's from the same people, but Myo does sound familiar.

January 3, 2016 4:02AM We did something similar a year ago. KITA-MATA (means Up-Down in Congolese language) : A Drone for agriculture. We used a Google Glass app to pilot a Drone using hands gesture and voice command in African language (local dialect). So a farm owner could fly it down on the farm and assess data collected from the sensors via Google Glass. Sign In or Register to comment.In the last few years, as drone technology has improved and become accessible to the masses, everyone from hobbyists to businesses to investors has hoped that the Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, would someday open the skies to drones.

It's starting to do that, but its progress may not be at the pace some had hoped. However, instead of stopping the flight of drones for commercial use in its tracks (hobby drones have been legal on a limited basis), the FAA recently proposed some fairly simple, albeit restrictive, rules on flying them. Here's what we know and what investors can expect. What the FAA wants drones to do Initial regulations from the FAA are essentially restricting drones to how a hobbyist might use one. Here are the four main restrictions. Depending on who you are, these regulations could open up a world of possibilities or crash your hopes for wider drone usage. What's key is that the FAA is taking steps toward the coming drone revolution and will likely open the skies even more in the next year or two. Where we'll begin to see drones One of the early uses for drones that people will begin to see will be in the real estate business. We're already seeing videos of homes pop up around the country, and now it will actually be legal to fly drones to film a home that's coming up for sale.

Search-and-rescue terms will also likely be an early adopter of drones. Aerovironment's (NASDAQ:AVAV) Qube drone is one example, equipped with a visual and thermal camera, autopilot, and a visual control tablet. In the future, these could be a standard piece of equipment for police, fire, and SWAT teams. Two other areas that have already been granted a few exemptions for drones are agriculture and oil and gas exploration. In the agriculture business, drones can survey a field far more efficiently than someone can from the ground or the air, increasing productivity and yield at a relatively low cost. The line-of-sight limitation could limit the scope and style of drones used, but it's something that's manageable for the time being. Oil and gas companies are using drones to survey and map remote locations, and that usage is set to grow even under current regulations. But not everyone is excited about the new drone rules. 's (NASDAQ:AMZN) drones will be grounded for the foreseeable future.

The line-of-sight provision is far too much for Amazon to overcome in delivering packages, as well as the fact that delivery drones would certainly need to fly near people. The challenge for the FAA is ensuring safety for drones that may run automatically. It's currently unknown how the FAA could make sure drones don't run into trees, power lines, people, or one another. A crash landing could injure someone and damage property, so it's understandable that they're not just letting drones loose. What we don't know is when more advanced regulations may begin to become available. So far, the FAA has slowly opened up drones to more testing and wider usage in a measured way. That will likely be true for automated flight, but it could be a decade before drones flying overhead is an everyday thing. In reality, that's probably saving the drone industry from itself. Even one major accident with a poorly designed drone system could make the public lose faith in drones altogether, so even those wanting more drone flight should hope the FAA gets regulations right rather than fast.

Who is ready to take advantage? There are a large number of companies working on drones, so picking winners and losers is tough at the moment. There are a handful of publicly traded companies who will likely play a role in the future of drones, including Aerovironment and Boeing (NYSE:BA), through its Insitu subsidiary. Obviously, drones would be a small percentage of Boeing's revenue, but with its wide reach in aviation it could be a big player. Both companies are approved for limited commercial flight today and will be aggressive in expanding into this market. Aerovironment is actually the military's No. 1 supplier of small drones and, as I mentioned above, has already launched a search-and-rescue product, Qube. With just $247 million in revenue over the past 12 months, the commercial drone market could have a huge impact on the company. I think this is a great way to get exposure to an industry with tremendous opportunity. Parrot is a publicly traded company in Paris and makes products like the AR Drone 2.0 and the Bebop Drone (shown above).
