Small FPV quadcopters are terrifying in war.<p>If you haven't seen it yet, go checkout whats on r/CombatFootage, its essentially killbots that follow soldiers around and explode on contact or drop grenades. I think this is a future of warfare which we are not talking about enough. If the Ukraine is able to make these effectively with consumer technology, unfortunately everyone can, including criminals looking to make hits.<p>I could see this fall out in a few ways:<p>- Operating personal drones and other small craft will (and should) become restrictive, if not outright prohibited outside of designated areas. All commercial drones outside of these areas will have to have squawk their position and registration.<p>- Eventually radio jammers will not be effective countermeasures against these weapons. Machine vision, and a simple AI which could be crammed into a SoM (e.g. IoT AI products), lock onto targets and follow them into areas with radio jammers.<p>- Anyone who needs security protection will probably be spending a lot more time indoors including events.
