Not to be a stickler, but, how is there not a single photo / video of the drone in action? Isn't this just an umbrella photoshopped into a stock image of a Phantom Drone?
I have plenty of legitimate questions that could probably be answered by a simple video :D

Though this is obviously meant to be humorous rather than serious, there is a group of people that would seriously benefit from such technology however.
As an albino, I am often forced to spend the sunniest of days in the summer inside or can only go outside if I put on high SPF sunscreen that basically ruins my clothes and makes me feel as if I just took a bath in a deep fryer.
In the past I have personally thought of a high-altitude flying drone that basically hovers a uv-blocking but transparent umbrella or plastic sheet above you (given that it is aerodynamically optimized ofcourse) so I won't have to worry about transforming into a lobster anymore. I could of course just hold such an umbrella in my hand.. but the looks people give me in western Europe when I do that make me feel rather uncomfortable.
