Practicing drone flight safely with AR & smart glasses

Drone company DJI, Epson, and Y Media Labs have partnered up to develop the world’s first augmented reality drone for smart glasses. They created an app for the Epson Moverio BT-300 drone that is basically an AR drone flight simulator.

“The simulator allows drone users to practice flying and polishing their skills in a safe environment. Unlike other drone apps controlled through your phone, this truly immersive experience allows users to get comfortable with how their drone actually flies because the physics are accurate and the simulator is controlled by the DJI drone controller, not through the phone,” says Sheila Mikailli, marketing lead for Y Media Labs.
