You may not be into the remote-control helicopter scene but the Parrot AR.Drone is just cool enough and easy enough to fly that you might change your mind. It used to be the case that only iOS device owners were able to use their gadgets to control their AR.Drones but now that has changed. We knew it was coming down the pipes but now an Android app has finally made it to the Android market.
We’ve covered the AR.Drone before ever since it visited CES and it’s been a popular “toy.” People have been coming up with code to make it do all sorts of cool things, such as tracking a red ball(interesting) and getting it running from regular computers, etc. People had worked on getting it working with Android devices and some may have succeeded to a point, unofficially. Now there is an official app in the Android Market from the makers of the copter.
This should open up the user base and hopefully get even more interest going around. The little green robot can now fly!
