Nature did amazing work putting up this 5-minute video explanation of how our Swift AI drone works and how it combines data from simulation and the physical world to train the AI controller, and why simulation alone is not enough. It features an interview with drone-racing world champion Thomas Bitmatta and the first author of the paper, Elia Kaufmann. Thanks to Leonard Bauersfeld for the great animations!
