DJI Spark Mini-Drone Is Controlled Using Hand Gestures

The new generation mini-drone is here – the DJI Spark. It can do more than any other drone it’s size (approximately the size of a soda can), and it’s collapsible to make it easier to carry and store.

Designed aground the unique needs of selfie takers everywhere, this is a mini-drone that can be controlled without a ‘controller’ and doesn’t need to be paired with a phone either. Instead, you only need to make hand gestures to direct it where to go, when to stop and take a picture, or you can program it’s path and then let ‘it’ do its thing autonomously.

You can shoot 1080p video with an integrated 12-megapixel camera, which is comparable to larger, bulkier, and more expensive drones, and, it can reach a speed of 31 mph and transmit video at a range of 1.2 miles. The only downside to this amazing little mini-drone is that the battery only last 16 minutes, however, batteries can be ‘swapped’ easily.
