Parrot AR Drone Helicopter Gaming

Like most people say, the most enjoyable games available are video games. But the Parrot AR Drone helicopter  has taken the competition far away from all contenders with the introduction of the first wireless controlled flying machine. Thus, this is much more than a game as you can simulate flying competitions, jet fighting and virtual wars with your friends.

The games that can be enjoyed with the Parrot AR Drone helicopter include single player games against the on-board computer and multi-player games to be played against friends who also have the Drone. The Drone comes pre-loaded with two virtual games namely "Drone Wars" and "Robot". The former can be played solo and in multi-player modes while the latter can only be played solo with the aim of defeating a virtual robot. For now, these are the earliest games that can be tried on the machine.

One great feature of this Parrot AR Drone helicopter is that the open source platform gives developers the ability to build games compatible with the I-operating system on the machine either for commercial sale or personal enjoyment. The CEO of the Parrot Company, Henri Seydoux has assured developers that they will be allowed to keep 100% of the revenues generated by the compatible applications built independently for this device. This is a wonderful incentive and before long the market will be flooded with an array of games conceptualized by different people across the globe for a single flying helicopter, thus helping to meet up with the Augmented Reality vision.

While flying and gaming, there is no momentary stop in the experience enjoyed as the Parrot AR Drone switches to autopilot mode if you take your hands off the Apple device controller. If left for a longer period, the machine will gently glide down to a height just about four metres off the ground. Games are also better enjoyed with the Inertial Guidance Systems and embedded safety features. For instance, the propellers come with safety rotor guards to prevent foreign objects from sticking into its blades and the controller device interface has an emergency button to stop the motors if need be. Thus, there is not stopping the fun except in the case of an emergency.

There is no limit to those who can enjoy games on this machine as even kids can conveniently control it with the aid of the technologies outlined above. Thus, if you have decided to take your gaming to the next level, then the Parrot AR Drone helicopter is the most viable option for you.
