DARPA Death Bots: UAV Could Snatch Humans Right Off The Streets (Video)
Justin Thomas and his colleagues at the GRASP Lab have produced an “avian-inspired” claw drone that mimics the way an eagle uses its talons to grab a fish out of the ocean.
A video clip of the drone shows the UAV swooping down at high speed to snatch an object using its 3D printed mechanical claw. By mimicking how a bald eagle sweeps its legs and claws backwards to aerodynamically close in on its prey without the need to slow down, the drone is able to grasp a stationary object with precise efficiency.
Drexel University’s Christopher Korpela is simultaneously developing flight stability software for drones with arms that would enable the UAV’s to carry a weighty object without them falling out of the air. The eventual purpose of the drones would be focused around “interacting with people or the environment,” although that is still a long way off according to Korpela.
Technology journalist Adario Strange envisages a future scenario where a larger version of the eagle claw drone could be used by law enforcement or military to pluck humans off the ground.
I can see the postivie things that this thing could be used for. Rescues and such, but none of that is even mentioned in the article. ’Interacting’ is a stretchy word and could mean a number of things. -Mort

what is wrong with these people?
just dangle lots of lengths of strong fishing line from an overhead party balloon and watch the drones crash in flames as the line wraps around the rotor blades and stalls them!
Im thinking some sort of personal carry EMP device like they have on the HUMVE’s to block cell phone transmission.
Guilty until proven innocent!
