DJI shows off concept drone with impressive new features
DJI unveiled its new Phantom X Concept drone which includes object tracking, multi-angle video shooting, and obstacle detection and avoidance system. The new concept drone also includes a feature called sky paint, which allows the user to draw paintings in the sky using their hands to guide the drone.

Telling someone you love them by writing it in the sky might be logistically impressive, but it's also pretty expensive. But in the future, your personal drone will let you do it without a plane.

A video of the Phantom X Concept drone, from Chinese tech giant DJI, says its futuristic drone will be able to 'sky paint' at will, controlled with an all-gesture interface.

The concept, talked up by Chloe Bennet from Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D in the promo clip, is also backed in the video by bosses from Pinterest and Adobe, and Dana Brunetti, the House of Cards producer.

A pair of drones -- which look to be computer generated -- can be seen skywriting while being controlled using gloves on each hand.

There's no indication on how much work the company has done on the drone but suggest a number of other features that would change how commercially available drones are used.

Other features suggested by the Chinese drone company include object tracking, multi-angle video shooting, and ways for the drone to dodge obstacles.

It's not the first time that many of these features have been proposed and may of them are already being developed by DJI's competitors.

Academics at MIT have created a drone that can dodge through trees while trailing at speeds of 30mph, while Lily is a drone that can be thrown in the air and all follow you around.
