@titanas really well done marketing. Lily's done a great job of helping consumers see how this could fit into their lives. That snowboarding demo sold me in the first 30 seconds. ;)

@aub it's amazing and can create a whole new category of high quality DIY film makers.
Little suggestion: plug that to an occulus rift and watch yourself be a third person video game character ;-) Or i dunno... out of body experience sounds cool
@matgosselin Though, this might have relevance if you are in the military, and you do have a third person viewpoint on a head set of sorts.

@aaronmckeehan I agree! It seems better from that perspective

I had the opportunity to meet the founders of Lily in person and check out a live demo. I was really blown away by the performance and their attention to design. Not to mention a really slick marketing video. Object avoidance is definitely a challenge, but one that all drone/flying camera/uav companies are tackling, and I wouldn't be surprised if a highly successful company dedicated to this challenge is built. I also like the use of an internal camera. As the owner of a DJI Phantom Vision 2 with a now-busted cameral + gimbal, I like that Lily is designed for a more rugged use case--from removing the external payload to the flexible blades to the design of the motors themselves. Looking forward to seeing the final product.
Cool product! We need to add you to our Drone Startups DB - http://drones-startups.silk.co/. Can you upgrade the camera to higher grade for additional capabilities?
Neat drone. Is there any detection built in so it can avoid other objects..like other drones? I'm imagining a scenario where multiple snowboarders has a Lily following them down a mountain, how does it avoid other Lily's, the chairlift, trees, etc?

From my point of view, this is definitely the most awesome product I encountered here! I want it! I need it!
Would this also work for my dog so I could always check where he's roaming? ;)
@alternative3 I was just thinking the same thing. Maybe they could build in a speaker so you could make some noise or yell if they're doing something they shouldn't....
