Lily is a self-flying drone that follows you around and records you

Aerial photography has really taken off with the advent of consumer drones, allowing virtually anyone to get a bird’s-eye view of the action below. Of course, the quality of the shots you get will ultimately depend on the skill of the pilot and if you’re wanting action shots of yourself, you’ll need at least one other person to fly the drone. A new drone called Lily aims to solve that dilemma. Think of it as your own personal drone equipped with a GoPro-style camera that flies itself and keeps you in focus at all times… because, well, that’s exactly what it is. The device uses a small GPS tracker that the user can put in their pocket or strap to their wrist which allows the drone to keep track of its owner. Lily also uses computer vision technology so it can recognize its owner and assist in framing shots. The wearable tracking device also has a microphone to record audio, a feature not found on other drones as the sound of its blades would be all you hear.
