      Likely won't happen... not for a while. First, they can currently only fly for 15 to 18 minutes. Second the FAA requires that they not fly over occupied spaces. This show require a portion of the playa to be fenced off. VIP's got to sit under a safety net that the FAA had approved (we were not VIPS).

      Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature; and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in themselves the due penalty for their error. And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done. They were filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Though they know God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

      Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

    Wow…this is incredible. It’s both super complicated and yet simple all at the same time.
    It’s just a drone…with software.
    That software connects to an animation application that allows you to create a choreography routine of any kind in a X/Y/Z directional format.
    You program the choreography
    Scale it to real world dimensions
    Given the velocity, acceleration and speed of the drones, you calculate the time and energy need to be produced precisely at which time each drone moves in sequence…
    And BOOM!!
    Soon…we’re gonna have drones that move faster than jet fighters…
    Imagine that 😳

A swarm can be released by fighters, bombers, cruise missiles, truck, etc.

      it is dumb gcode like instruction, like a 3D printer, it doesn't know what it is doing either, it is just following very simple 3 axis coordinate instructions line by line, like an etch-a-sketch where it is only told to turn each knob so many "steps" in each direction, can make amazing works of art

    • @IdleByte
      @IdleByte 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@coreysuffield That's not possible. A 3d printer isn't printing into the wind. A drone floating about may have a simple instruction to move 5ft up, but how does it know where the start and finish of that 5ft move are? And how does it know it's holding position when wind pushes it. Something has be a center point, a point of reference, that it can use to know that. Otherwise they would drift apart or into each other randomly as wind offsets what 'here' is. Unless it can lock onto something to counter that drift. edit: Larger images would need more points of reference since just using a single point would still skew things. I also imagine it would be easier for each drone to know its precise location rather than have a central system track each drone individually and somehow remotely orient it while managing the rest of the group. Could be centralized but wouldn't be as good as on drone.
