RC Quadcopter -- Search and Rescue Mission

Here is the video we all were waiting for. This video proves the point very well. Quadcopters built using quality components and flown using good gear, like Baby Widow Maker, can be very effective for Search and Rescue missions. This video was shot using Baby Widow Maker quad and 5.8ghz FPV system with hand made non precision Clover leaf antennas. I, the Pilot was not told the location of my target yet, it was just totally fun to find my target so quick using Baby Widow Maker quad.

Are these robots the future of Search and Rescue and healthcare?

Subscribe to ITN News: http://bit.ly/itnytsub
The world's largest robot trade fair got under way in Tokyo this week, as robot makers showed off what could be the future of society. More than 330 companies turned up in the Japanese capital for the International Robot Exhibition (iREX). There were some hi-tech toys on display, but most of the exhibitors were serious designers, unveiling robots that might be able to help in the healthcare, services and manufacturing sectors in the future.

Inventors from Tokyo University of Science brought in their robotic muscle suit, which they hope factories and care homes will turn to as Japan's demographic shifts towards the elderly.
