The Pixy drone was a special innovation whose history becomes unfortunately short.
The Pixy drone was a special innovation whose history becomes unfortunately short.
The parent company of Snapchat A click abandons the development of drone equipment. The news comes just about four months after the company released the Pixy drone. The device was developed to photograph its owner autonomously.
The topic was reported by the Wall Street Journal.
In practice, the drone functions as an independent and remarkably light camera. Although development of the device has been frozen, Pixy drones are still being sold to customers.
The austerity measures and cutbacks in experimental operations come as no surprise, as many other tech giants have also announced cuts to research and development.
Operations are slowing down due to inflation and the uncertain market situation. Pixy can be considered a rather experimental project, which apparently did not take air in its small propellers as desired.
