Warsaw protester launches drone to spy on police
During protests in Warsaw last weekend, one crafty activist deployed a flying drone to spy on riot police.
YouTube user latajacakamera — or “flying camera” in Polish — uploaded the amazing video that the drone effortlessly captured as it hovered over teargas-filled streets.
In another video, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) floats in front of a formation of police in riot gear as they rush towards demonstrators. None of them appear to notice.
Wired editor-in-chief Chris Anderson confirmed that the flying machine was built by the Polish company Robokopter.
Watch this video from latajacakamera, uploaded to YouTube Nov. 12, 2011.
