Two videos showing a very quick demo of the Nod Ring hand held gesture device controlling a DJI Inspire 1 UAV.
The use of the Nod and DJI drone talking to each other is very much at the prototype stage, but the possibilities of controlling a UAV just with hand gestures is very exciting.
Using the Nod Ring to control a DJI Inspire 1 and Google Cardboard to get a live 360 video stream controlled by your head. Thanks to DJI and SparkAriel for making this demo a reality.
