If we could get autonomous drones, I would have one hold up an umbrella to shield me from the sun at all times as I walk around, lol!

We played a game with our Cub Scouts where they would set up a pyramid of red plastic cups in a field and then fly a drone equipped with a release mechanism to drop a ball from as high as they wanted to take it and see how accurate their aim was. Their aim was terrible and hilarious and they ended just running through the cups and throwing them at each other, but loved thinking about where to position the drone and ask about doing it again a lot.

I see you're training the next generation of drone combat specialists.
