On «Kickstarter» began collecting money for the children's designer to build drones

The company Skyworks Aerial Systems организовала collection of funds for educational and entertainment set Eedu. Developers provides a simple set of parts that anyone can create their own flying drone. The first project is aimed at children, although it may be to the soul of any lover of technology and programming.





The set is an instruction for self-assembly of the drone aircraft provided details. Also included is a remote control.

However, the "trick" of the project is that raising the unit into the air young aviator will have to write an application to control the drone. Naturally, you need to write an application from scratch, but based on the software that is in the public domain, from the same company Skyworks Aerial Systems. This software will allow the owner to modify your preferences - for example, to install it, or thermal camera.



So developers are trying to teach a new generation the basics of programming and encouraging children to new technologies. For example, such a device can be used in practical training on science lessons in schools and support the trend to introduce innovative technology in school education.



To start the project developers need to collect 100 thousand dollars per month. If all goes well, then for $ 449 you become the owner of this set in March 2016.
