Roboticists in Germany have taught a drone how to land itself on a moving automobile.
The researchers from the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) have demonstrated their aircraft safely landing on a car fitted with a net travelling at up to 75 km/h (47mph).
They suggest the technology could be adapted to let unmanned aircraft be built without wheels to let them stay airborne for longer periods of time.
This looks like some cool tech. But, the additional cost of the car, and net may make this very expensive if you don't own a car, and a net. You also have to hire a driver, buy car insurance, and maintain the car like doing oil changes, and repairs which can make this drone more expensive to operate since maintaining a car, buying car insurance, and hiring a driver are very costly in most western countries like Canada, and the US.
There are already helicopter style drones which can land on most flat surfaces like a real helicopter, so I think some people looking for a drone which can land anywhere will pick a helicopter style drone.
