Last year, in 2015 we saw an explosion of Drones being purchased by consumers. In fact, according to the Business Insider, the market for commercial/civilian drones will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19% between 2015 and 2020. Drone commercial and consumer use will provide billions of dollars in economic growth (projected to reach $4.8 billion dollars, worldwide by 2021). However, where there is an abundance of Drones being purchased, there seems to be little in imagination with respect to drone evolution.
French based Parrot Is hoping to help consumers discover the next generation in Drone Technology with the Parrot Disco. With Ultra-light, automatic take-off and landing and a GPS guided return home option, this drone can be piloted safely by anyone.
The Parrot Disco can be safely transported in your vehicle. The detachable wings make it easy to assemble and disassemble. Connectable via Wi-Fi or compatible with RC controller systems, the flexibility offered by the Disco.makes it a perfect fit for both novice and experienced pilots. The Parrot Disco comes with a 14 Megapixel, Full HD 1080P Front nose camera and leverages 3-axis digital stabilization to ensure you capture that perfect picture.
The Parrot Disco is expected to be available later on in 2016.
