When i saw this the 1st time, it is awesome and cool. But imagine if this is full blown into a flying droid, now it is scary. The Skynet is here. Cao cao (Singlish : Run Run Run) ha2.

The technology is developed by Daniel Mellinger and Vijay Kumar from Grasp Lab (University of Pennysylvania). The Quadrotor can actually recover from extreme condition and fly steadily without human intervention. The best thing is it can even detect extreme movement and fly into loops. Cool.
