Though the phenomenon is often associated with little green men in the popular imagination, UFO sightings should not be dismissed as they could actually be surveillance drones or weapons, Japanese lawmakers said. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/06/06/japan/japan-lawmakers-ufo-probe/ #japan #ufos #yasukazuhamada #defense #drones

Nope, no one's using drones to track any of the released immigration detainees. Giles was apparently given the wrong info by his department...

That's quite the error to make.

RUSSIAN NIGHTMARE 😱

Ukrainian heavy Baba Yaga drone can be controlled from anywhere on the planet

The history of mass production of Ukrainian attack UAVs began with a full-scale invasion. During this time, Ukrainian engineers have created more than one drone that actively helps destroy the invaders.

Operators of Baba Yaga do not have to be on the battlefield; it can be controlled from anywhere. The military at the front only needs to install ammunition

Availability and ubiquity of surveillance technology doesn’t affect whether the government needs a warrant to use them against you, says the Alaska Supreme Court. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/05/alaska-supreme-court-takes-aerial-surveillances-threat-privacy-seriously-other #drones #surveillance

Israeli deadly #robots; The new weapon of the regime in the Gaza war

During the genocidal war and non-stop aggressive attacks against the Gaza strip, the IDF soldiers use remote-controlled robots that are used to perform various military missions such as reconnaissance, imaging, search and explosion.

During the recent attacks on the #Jabalia camp, the IDF widely used explosive robots; Especially in places where it was not possible to enter due to the intensity of the resistance.

Another article about how drone warfare maybe doesn't make the MBT fully obsolete but changes are necessary also with NATO armies to protect them better from small drone strikes.

Perhaps someone can help with this problem... and help get more aid to Ukraine.

VIDEO: "Short on air defenses and waiting for more international military support, Ukraine is turning to improvised weapons to hold Russian soldiers back on the front line. DW's Nick Connolly met soldiers who are using agricultural drones to make up for missing firepower."

Signal scramblers that incapacitate drones have become a mainstay in recent months in Ukraine, used to neutralize the devices that now saturate the sky over battlefields. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/05/23/world/drone-jammers-ukraine/ #worldnews #ukraine #russia #russiaukrainewar #drones

Want a fun fact?

the country who's been mass-producing and supplying Russia with tons and tons of to bomb Ukrainians over the past 2 years.... asked EU, Turkyie and USA to send reconnaissance drones and lend European GPS-capacities over its territory in search of the helicopter of its president and its MFA.

Yes, you read me right: Iran apparently doesn't have sufficient reconnaissance drones (or sufficiently efficient ones) to search and potentially rescue their own president.

"NYPD will deploy drones to respond to 911 calls"

  • Pilot program is in 5 precincts.
  • Each precinct will get rooftop drone platform
  • Calling it “drones as first responders”

This a good thing? Drones can certainly get eyes to an emergency quickly. Video footage admissible in court?

Privacy implications? Will people be shooting these down?

Started a new SDF modeling project in MagicaCSG.

It's going to be a sci-fi drone. More updates will follow tomorrow.

Sci-fi drone design update…

Added a few more little widgets to finish the model.

I think this time I'm going to export the model to Blender for rendering with Cycles. MagicaCSG includes a great path tracing renderer, but it lacks textures.

Science-fiction surveillance drone design.

Modeled and rendered in MagicaCSG, Post-processed in PhotoScape X.

I was too lazy to port it to Blender and add textures, and I think MagicaCSG's renderer did a fine job again.

See other posts for WIPs.

Couldn't resist creating a slightly weathered version of my sci-fi drone. A little bit of dust and dirt gives more character to a machine.

See other posts in this thread for more drone impressions.
