Police in the UK are planning to use unmanned spy drones, controversially deployed in Afghanistan, for the "routine" monitoring of antisocial motorists, protesters, agricultural thieves and fly-tippers, in a significant expansion of covert state surveillance.

In the future, this technology will have an even greater impact on our everyday lives, e.g. in "drive-by-wire" semi-automated car navigation systems, neighborhood security, home and auto insurance, virtual reality, life hacking, and etc. And don't forget that drones can draw power directly from the sun - the ultimate green robot.
