For example, if you train your drone to follow dogs, you need to teach it how to detect an object and compare it with a dog and follow it, which is a little complicated. But in this chapter, you will be given some ideas that can be implemented for building your own Follow Me drone. As we were talking about following a device with the Follow Me drone, you may have guessed that the position might ...
