// Gizmag Emerging Technology Magazine

Scarecrows and other visually intimidating props placed on the ground can be useful in deterring birds within a certain radius, but one company is looking further afield by battling the pests in the sky. Designed to resemble a real-life bird of prey, the ProHawk UAV can be programmed to autonomously fly over a property and emit menacing predatory cries as it goes.

Un projet de drone chez Solar Impulse

L'équipe qui a créé l'avion électrique solaire a engagé une étude de faisabilité en vue de créer des drones solaires, autrement-dit des HAPS (pseudo-satellites à haute-altitude). "Nous allons passer d'un projet d'exploration à un projet industriel", assure André Borschberg, le pilote de Solar Impulse 2, à swissinfo.ch. D'ici plus ou moins cinq ans, décolleraient des appareils sans pilote de moindre envergure que Solar Impulse 2 (30 à 50 mètres contre 72 mètres) pouvant embarquer une charge utile d'une cinquantaine de kilos contre 300 kilos. Sur le blog Solar Impulse, il évoque "un appareil à énergie solaire sans pilote, capable de voler au moins six mois de manière autonome dans la stratosphère, au-dessus du trafic aérien et des perturbations météorologiques, là où l'air est calme". http://drones.blog.lemonde.fr/2016/01/18/un-projet-de-drone-chez-solar-impulse/#xtor=RSS-3208
