'Taking a cue from the Terminator films, the US Navy is developing unmanned drones that network together and operate in 'swarms.' Predator drones have proven one of the most effective — and most controversial — weapons in the military arsenal. And now, these unmanned aircraft are talking to each other. Until now, each drone was controlled remotely by a single person over a satellite link. A new tech, demoed last week by NAVAIR, adds brains to those drones and allows one person to control a small squadron of them in an intelligent, semiautonomous network.'
I read this and thought... this is just like multiboxing - only with bots and AI assistance. Holy cow....
I don't know if anybody has ever seen the computer setups they use to control Predator drones but they look awfully similar to the setups we use to multibox with.
