What happens to the swarm afterwards? Do they stay in the air forever? Self-land in a neat, organized fashion? Or do people have to go track them down?<p>Also, what is the purpose of this class of drone?<p>EDIT:<p>Searching &quot;perdix drone&quot; surfaced more information.<p><pre><code> Perdix drones are the main subject of an experimental project conducted by the Strategic Capabilities Office of the United States Department of Defense which aims to develop autonomous micro-drones to be used for unmanned aerial surveillance.</code></pre>
