Walmart is looking to revolutionise farming processes with the use of robotic alternatives to bees.

Taking the form of a multicopter – a type of aerial vehicle that flies using two or more rotating blades – the "bees" would use cameras and sensors to find the locations of crops where they would distribute pollen.

Carlo Ratti说:“你可以想象一下,通过无人机,人们可以安全便捷地在公路上、铁路旁、高架桥中进行各式各样的绘画创作,这该是一种多么美好的体验。”

Paint By Drone by Carlo Ratti

Italian architect Carlo Ratti has designed a system that uses flying robots to replicate the traditional printing process.

"Imagine how this could make the realisation of works of public art both easier and safer, in urban contexts as well as the infrastructure level – for example alongside highways, within railway galleries, on bridges and viaducts," said Carlo Ratti.

Designed to be used for underwater surveillance and marine biodiversity studies, the MantaDroid mirrors the moves and looks of a mantra ray, to disguising it in aquatic surroundings.

It offers an inconspicuous alternative to conventional underwater vehicles.

在2017年艺术周期间,位于阿姆斯特丹的Studio Drift通过300架无人机来模范迈阿密沙滩上的候鸟。

同样的手法运用在多个项目之中,例如去年火人节中的人造大树艺术装置,该装置在灯光的照耀下熠熠生辉。

Amsterdam-based Studio Drift choreographed 300 drones to mimic a flock of birds over Miami Beach during 2017 art week.

The studio uses algorithms in much of its work, such as an artificial tree installed at last year's Burning Man festival that illuminated with "light flocks".

建筑师Ammar Mirjan认为,无人机在施工过程中是很有价值的工具,它能够完成许多曾经无法做到的任务。

Mirjan解释说:“无人机可以环绕现有的建筑飞行,并且完成各项任务,这是我们人类和起重机无法完成的事。”例如,它们可以在空中完成既定的环绕结构体系。

Drones could be a valuable tool in construction, widening the spectrum of what's possible in architecture, according to architect Ammar Mirjan.

"We can fly [drones] through and around existing objects, which a person couldn't do or a crane couldn't do," explains Mirjan. They can be programmed to weave simple tensile structures in the air, for example.
