The unit is a flying spherical reconnaissance drone developed by Japan’s military. It is 42cm in diameter, 350g in weight and can fly for some 8 minutes, being capable of reaching speeds of 60km/h. Autopilot systems are said to be under development.
The next step will be probably the addition of a laser gun and a speaker to broadcast music.
