This... is... just... mindblowing.

It's a radio controlled 4 rotor helicopter, that you control using an ipad/iphone, and it has a video feed from the chopper back to your handheld.



What's more it adds extra bits and pieces to the video stream, so you can have races on a virtual 'racetrack', or play shoot em up games against virtual enemies, but with a real chopper flying in the real world.

(apparently the framerate has been improved in later versions of the software)

But for total R/C immersion, this one takes the cake.

It's an R/C flying wing, with a camera on it that transmits to a video helmet worn by the pilot who stands on the ground.
