Mosquito Drones, already in use. What say you?

The story can be true, but illustrating it with a 3D CGI image, which was made for a competition and won 3rd prize, well, it doesn't give too much credibility for sure: www.garmada.com --> VIS --> last image. The guy who made this image is my colleague... :)

Bet he didn't know he was a prophet.

I'm having trouble finding it. Can you direct me to it a little better?
Thanks!

This has got to be a joke. If true, privacy getting real narrow has to be the understatement of the year.

BITE ME........and see what you get?

scary is the word, though since I take garlic pills bugs don't bother me, after this if feel something i might smash it.

I think I will take to spraying so much mosquito killer in my back yard and on patio that if I see one, I will have to assume it's a "drone," and then will take a hammer to it.

Hehe! Sounds like a plan to me!

For some reason machine won't let me rave. Sorry.

Scary! The total end of so called 'privacy rights.'

Ok from a strictly engineering point of view that is way cool but from a privacy point of view it is way scary.

For real?

I'm not going to worry about such things. They can track me anytime they want. Looking for a job isn't really that much of a threat to the government.............unless i get a job ahead of all the illegals that obama just granted amnesty to.

Better buy some before you need a prescription.

They aren't as small as this picture, but I'm sure Walmart has them scouring all the Target parking lots.

These will be a hackers wet dream as the ability to absorb and protect the data will become unmanageable.

We'll have to set up Tesla coil electronic firewalls around our homes.

What is Most Pathetic, this type of technology exists, or is on the way, and I still can't get a decent high speed Internet connection.

Strange.

This is too sci-fi for me to believe. We don't have this sort of technology. In addition such a drone would not be able to survive in any sort of wind or wet environment. Thirdly we can't afford this. I'm not gonna call conspiracy...but I'm learning hard to it.

That.....is a blog spot blog. You could have linked to wikipedia for all that's worth lol. Isn't there anything....more credible??

The CIA was among the earliest to tackle the problem. The "insectothopter," developed by the agency's Office of Research and Development 30 years ago, looked just like a dragonfly and contained a tiny gasoline engine to make the four wings flap. It flew but was ultimately declared a failure because it could not handle crosswinds.

Agency spokesman George Little said he could not talk about what the CIA may have done since then. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Homeland Security and the Secret Service also declined to discuss the topic.

Only the FBI offered a declarative denial. "We don't have anything like that," a spokesman said.
Usually when they deny it, it's true. :D

How wild is that!!

...And very creepy....

I agree it is creepy.

I believe they are also using robotic birds as well for spying purposes and intelligence gathering.

Last time I heard about this concept, it was on Get Smart. Now it's real...

Lol...that's right!

awesome......the technology I mean....however if anybody is a fan of Dan Brown...he wrote about this back in the 1980's!!!

Fake.

Can no one recognise a photoshop any more or do the slightest amount of research?

You're not from here are you?

I'm sorry I didn't realise not living in American mad me incapable of doing any research in to the matter. Oh wait, it doesn't.

Surely you don't think such a bad photoshop, like the one you posted, is real?

prove your claim

The burden off proof is on you, not me. You claim it is real, so you must back up your point. This is basic logic.

I already did that, you're the one claiming it's fake.

As I said before the image is a fake, so you proved nothing, because you have provide no sources or proof.

Don't waste your time KC...this not-so-smart Alec seems to think she KNOWS IT ALL!!!!

Typical kid... everything is because she said so.

It is real.

...who is it that hasn't done THEIR research???...this has been in the development stages since 2009!!! Well read, knowledgeable people have known about it since THEN... Maybe from now on...YOU should DO SOME RESEARCH before you lash out!
