Drones are a hot topic in contemporary culture and regulation. From advanced military applications to delivering defibrillators to patients faster than an ambulance can get to those in need, drones are fast becoming a common part of everyday life. Like the automobile, the airplane, the personal computer and the internet, drones will soon be so ubiquitous it will be difficult to remember a life without them. In this discussion, we will explore the future applications of drones in our personal lives, as well as in places you would least expect. Several examples will be on hand from fixed wing to quadcopter and demonstrations of each platforms abilities will be displayed.
