A new smartphone app will let people identify mysterious drones flying overhead
The world's largest drone manufacturer has announced plans for a new smartphone app that lets users identify mysterious drones flying around their neighborhood. Developed by DJI, the Shenzhen based drone giant, the unnamed app is targeted for a release in early 2020 pending approval by government regulators. The app will have a range of around .6 miles using WiFi Aware, a new communication protocol that allows WiFi-enabled devices to communicate with one another. DJI announced the new app at the United Nations-sponsored Drone Enable conference in Montreal this week. 'We've created a remote identification solution that works with what people already have,' DJI's Brendan Schulman told Reuters.
