The Lily Camera Is a Drone That Flies Itself

But the Lily Camera’s coolest feature is how it lands. When you press the Land button in the Lily tracker, the drone will automatically fly to you. You can then reach out your hand, gently tap the bot’s underside, and it will instantly power down. It’s like calling your falcon back to you, except you don’t need to feed it a mouse afterward.

The Lily Camera’s optimal range is between 10 and 30 feet from its tracking device. The drone can reach speeds of up to 25 miles per hour, so even if you’re a particularly fast skater, the Lily Camera shouldn’t have much trouble keeping up with you. 

If, for some reason, the Lily Camera gets too far from you, it will automatically enter hover mode and stay put until it reconnects with your tracker.

The Lily Camera also offers a long battery life, lasting up to 20 minutes in the air. And like most modern quads, the Lily will land itself if you try to run down its battery.

The Lily Camera is available to pre-order today for $499 at www.lily.camera. The drone officially ships in February 2016 at a retail price of $999.
