Skydio R1 adds Car Follow Mode
One of the amazing things about the Skydio R1 is the ability for the company (founded by Olin alumni Adam Bry '08 and Matt Donahoe '08) to push behavioral updates to the drone over the air. As time goes on, the Skydio aerial autonomy platform will gain new intelligent capabilities built on the Skydio Autonomy Engine.
This latest update is one incredible feature that also demonstrates the power of having an autonomous aerial drone platform, as described in this a16z podcast interview with CEO Adam Bry and Board Member Chris Dixon from Andreesson-Horowitz.
