Found this documentary video about all kinds of autonomous aircraft and drones on YouTube whilst looking for something else:
To be honest I found the first part of the video to be somewhat of a history lesson with the more modern technology being presented in the second half of the video…so if you get bored skip ahead!
It is fascinating, to me at least, to see the miniaturization and cost reductions of various sensors and MEMS technologies to allow the APS (Auto Pilot System) to do things it can do. I will write more on this in a subsequent post.
