Drone Technology: Pushing the Limits | Monty Lomazzi | TEDxSpokane

Drone technology is here today. From automated product distribution, to advanced search and rescue, to immediate medical attention, it can and will be done by drones. How do these technologies become part of our world? – Let a drone racer show you how. Monty Lomazzi aka “Mustang Freak” — Racing Drone Pilot and the Chapter Organizer for SpokaneFPV, a regional Tier 2 MultiGP drone racing chapter. Myself and others like me are using fields, parks, even their backyards across the globe to redefine what it is to pilot remote vehicles of all types. With us pushing the limits daily, the systems we are using are being forced to become lighter, faster, and smarter at an extreme rate. This is creating a future where that delivery you just ordered gets to you in half the time, calling for help and knowing it’s literally only a minute away, and sending your kids off to school in an autonomous bus that has a better driving record than you… That future we heard about is now. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
