ABSTRACT
This video illustrates an example on how arbitrary landscapes can be used as organic display surfaces for situating real world augmentations in novel ways, enabling new design dimension in seeing and perceiving the world from above. As drones with integrated cameras are becoming more popular and may soon be ubiquitous, seeing the world from above may interest more and more people. The presented video demonstrates a novel approach for creating large-scale art works that are built into landscapes. We call this DroneLandArt. In the video a green grass field is used as a large-scale display surface for a huge smiley, made with the help of a video-enabled drone and a lawn mower. In this paper, we discuss motivational aspects of the work and the creative process involved.

Midair Displays: Concept and First Experiences with Free-Floating Pervasive Displays
PerDis '14: Proceedings of The International Symposium on Pervasive DisplaysDue to advances in technology, displays could replace literally any surface in the future, including walls, windows, and ceilings. At the same time, midair remains a relatively unexplored domain for the use of displays as of today, particularly in ...
Drones and Privacy
Drones, also referred to as UAV's Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, are an aircraft without a human pilot. Drones have been used by various military organisations for over a decade, but in recent years drones a have been emerging more and more in commercial and ...
The use of gaze to control drones
ETRA '14: Proceedings of the Symposium on Eye Tracking Research and ApplicationsThis paper presents an experimental investigation of gaze-based control modes for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or "drones"). Ten participants performed a simple flying task. We gathered empirical measures, including task completion time, and examined ...
