Parrot Bebop Drone, an eye in the sky

Parrot has shown his new gadget, the Parrot Bebop Drone, who aspires to become the king of heaven in his own right.

Equipped with a 14 megapixel Full HD (1080p x 1920p) camera and stabilized by a 3-axis frame, this new drone records videos and takes great quality pictures at 180.

These images are taken with total stability thanks to several systems both mechanical and digital:

Four shock absorbers, to reduce engine vibrations.

Algorithms for the stabilization of the 3 axes, causing the viewing angle to remain fixed and without distortion, regardless of the inclination of the drone or sudden movements.

Images are treated digitally thanks to a Parrot P7 dual-core processor, a graphics processing unit and a patented ISP (image seal processor).

Also we can choose several settings as different formats (16: 9, 4: 3, fisheye …), white balance, saturation, etc.

Very shock resistant, amazes how light it is, 390 grams without protective case and 410 with it. Through the well-known proprietary Parrot FreeFlight 3.0 software we can control it comfortably from our smartphone or tablet, even performing previously recorded spins and stunts. Its autonomy is about 20 minutes using the two batteries included.

But if we want more control, Parrot puts at your disposal the fantastic Skycontroller, a remote control in which we can incorporate our tablet and, thanks to its amplified Wi-Fi radio and its four antennas, ampla reach up to 2 kilometersIn this case we will control the Bebop Drone by means of two side joysticks.

Finally, we can also increase the sensation if we add some FPV glasses to the team (first person view). Connected via HDMI, the camera angle follow head movements, in addition to offer us an immersive view of what we see through the camera of the Bebop Drone.

ES Parrot Bebop Drone is available in three colors, blue, red and yellow at a recommended price of 499 euros. If, in addition, we want the Skycontroller, the set costs us 899 euros.
