Cape Allows You to Remotely Control Drones in Real Time.

Using your phone or computer.

Another day, another technological drone advancement. An American startup called Cape has just launched a platform that will allow users to control one of their DJI Inspire 1 drones in real time. More specifically, participants can choose their flight location — only in California for now — and then manipulate the unmanned aerial vehicle via laptop, tablet or phone. It’s important to note that users can only pilot the Cape drone in their desired location and would not be able to leave it. If you navigate the quadcopter away from its permitted zone, the device will immediately switch to autopilot — the feature will also help prevent unnecessary accidents or crashes. The company has described it as “the world’s first online drone flight platform.”
