It connects wirelessly to another device, receives information about a picture and where it was taken, then calculates a new flight path. The drone flies to that new spot, finds the object from the original picture using its camera, and takes a new picture of it.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread advancements in real-time object tracking and autonomous drone navigation. Modern computer vision and drone AI make the object tracking and corresponding image capture more feasible.
