Like the pigeon, that thing needs reverse thrusters to slow it's trajectory and give it lift; otherwise dodging one object, losing lift and diving into a unrecoverable trajectory is not much of an accomplishment. Back to the drawing boards human haters, make those wings scoop and don't forget the fricken lay-zers!

They don't know it, but the future of Micro Autonomous Arial Platforms is...
(looks around and whispers) very small open-faced motorcycle helmets for Mocking birds. Those birds are always standing more than flying, looking around and spying on cats. Put a helmet on those bad boys and attach a fricken lay-zer.

@Pud_Z Added lay-zors would improve just about anything.

There was only a 10 million dollar grant from the government to do this study. They've applied for another, and will get it.
(human haters?)

Don't worry people, this tech will soon be sold to the Pentagon or DHS for your protection and safety.
