This might be one of the most effective advertisement ever. Almost everyone in the city can see it!
@刘杰 No. Just give all the drones one same command to turn at an arc. Depending on how they do this, they need to feed drones new XYZ location data and degree of orientation.
@@LifeLongRunner yea should be pretty simple, just do it but facing the opposite direction. The interesting thing is that they can set up so the drones can be scanned.
@DENNY LIU ZHANG use mirror then done XD
Nah. You know how large Shanghai is? Most effective AND efficient way of advertisement in the air is by using airships/blimps.
Man! If only I can speak QR Code!
I am 100% certain that somewhere in the world, one day someone will use this to rickroll a whole city
