Gestures that control drones

Hands-free controls

DJI has been trying to simplify the world of drones for a few years, but now it has taken an even bolder step, creating a drone that you practically fly by waving, the DJI NEO 2 is the new generation of a model for beginners, small, light, intuitive and brings improvements that make everything even more automatic, more fluid and closer to the experience of simply raising your hand and letting the camera do the rest.

Fits in the palm of your hand.

They are just 151 grams and have an area with protected propellers, which means that they do not require registration in the United States and can be used without concern, but what really draws attention is the Lidar sensor package, very rare in cheap drones, which allows the DJI NEO 2 to see obstacles and avoid them during flight.

For those who are just starting out, that is almost an invisible safety net and control almost does not exist, DJI NEO 2 can be launched into the air, automatically follow you and return to your hand as if it were a trained bird, it understands simple gestures, a wave changes the direction, two raised arms bring the drone closer and it still accepts voice commands via cell phone or Bluetooth headphones.

If you want more precision, just use your smartphone as a remote control or connect a DJI controller, with a mounted camera and a now rotating Jinbow follows you while you walk, run or pedal, always with smooth movements, taking predefined shots, cinematic close-ups and group photos with just a few touches.

All this while flying faster than the previous model, up to 44 km/h, enough to accompany a bike without problem, and the range is impressive, 500 m of stable Wi-Fi connection in open fields.

The image sensor also changed, now with more color and more stability, recording up to 4K at 60 frames per second, it has 49 GB of internal storage, capable of saving up to 105 minutes of filming and a flight autonomy of about 19 minutes.
