3. your smartphone and this small drone are pretty similar

3.1. senors used in your phone:

3.1.1. gps

3.1.2. magnetometer

3.1.3. accelerometer

3.1.3.1. to tilt your map upside down

3.2. the same sensors in these small drones

3.3. we were able to make small autopilots due to smartphone revolution

3.3.1. parts get smarter and smarter

3.3.2. in 5 years: everybody will also have a small drone is his/her pocket

4. The Delfly drone

4.1. http://www.delfly.nl/

4.2. specs

4.2.1. flapping wing UV

4.2.2. mostly created from foam

4.2.3. weighs only 17 grams

4.2.3.1. important because of safety

4.2.4. equipped with a camera

5. Small autopilot from TU delft

5.1. controls, either

5.1.1. manually

5.1.1.1. using remote

5.1.1.2. using your iPhone

5.1.1.2.1. in follow-me mode

5.1.2. autonomous

5.1.2.1. using Google earth

5.1.2.2. combining

5.1.2.2.1. smart software

5.1.2.2.2. small sensors

5.1.2.2.3. Tiny GPS

5.2. open source

5.2.1. all software

5.2.2. all hardware

5.2.3. so eveybody in the world

5.2.3.1. can contribute

5.2.3.2. can create their own small drone

5.2.4. why

5.2.4.1. if all people have access to these drones, some great things will be popping out

5.2.5. remember

5.2.5.1. your smartphone

5.2.5.1.1. first as a gadget

5.2.5.1.2. then Facebook apps appered

5.2.5.1.3. now you can't live without it

5.2.5.2. we hope to have the same development for these drones

5.3. applications

5.3.1. small drones filming

5.3.1.1. instead of big camera crane

5.4. making it small

5.4.1. why make it so small

5.4.1.1. to create smaller drones

5.4.1.2. we're engineers:

5.4.1.2.1. we want to do research

5.4.1.2.2. we want to do hard things

5.4.2. smaller = making it harder

5.4.2.1. limited power

5.4.2.2. limited processing power

5.4.2.3. need to make

5.4.2.3.1. smart hardware

5.4.2.3.2. smart software
