Age of the Drones – Private Detectives rejoice

 Age of the Drones – Private Detectives rejoice

Private Detectives rejoice! Parrot has announced 2 new products to add to their portfolio. There was a time when drones were something one could only see in Sci Fi movies. Much like 3D printers or gadgets like Google Glass and the Samsung Galaxy Gear. It’s a wonder how far technology has come and maybe drones have come furthest. So much so that Amazon’s Jeff Bezo showcased an idea of having products delivered by drones alone. This is mostly because of companies like Parrot, based in Paris. While the kind of Drones Parrot makes have existed for a while and in other forms for much longer, Parrot truly took the growing market into another plane with the launch of their first drone, the ‘Parrot AR.Drone’ at CES in 2010. Featuring 2 cameras, WiFi, the technology to have it controlled by your iPhone and priced at a relatively modest 299$ at launch, the AR.Drone truly took the drone market by storm.

Private Detective - AR Drone

This year at CES 2014, Parrot released two new drones, The Parrot MiniDrone and the Leaping Sumo Rolling Bot. The MiniDrone, doesn’t feature a camera unlike it’s big brother AR.Drone so Private Detectives in training beware. If you do hold aspirations to be a Private Detective, we suggest using the MiniDrone as a practice vehicle. Although prices haven’t been announced, it’s expected to be cheaper than the full featured AR.Drone. The Leaping Sumo Rolling Bot on the other hand does feature a camera but unlike the former, it’s only a ground only vehicle.

So, despite new launches, Parrot’s AR.Drone is still the only product Parrot offers that can be considered seriously for anyone considering being a Detective as a career choice. Sure, it’s easy to spot and not entirely practical in a city as windy and dark as Manchester but it comes with a 720p camera, 4GB of storage and also comes with GPS tracking and navigation which makes it a great tool in case you’re a Private Detective who has lost his tracking device and urgently needs to track someone. Just throw your Parrot AR.Drone in the boot of your clients vehicle and follow away.
