How Intel creates its flying drone shows

Intel, which wowed folks with its syncronized drone show at the Olympics, is at it again, with a drone show at the Coachella music festival near Palm Springs Sunday. We sit down with an Intel exec who explains how it works, and why Intel is pushing the idea of dancing drones. LOS ANGELES -- Intel, once best known as the company that powered PCs and Macs with its silicon chips, is now perhaps better known to the public for its awesome drone light shows. The company doesn't make consumer drones nor does it have plans to take on DJI or Yuneec, but it's become a frequent visitor to high profile events like the Super Bowl and Olympics with synchronized aerial drone shows. The Olympics alone had 1,218 drones in the air at one time, forming five Olympic rings and other intricate figures.
