At best, the things are going to have a range of about 3,280 (1km) if they are using range extenders.  Then they could go for about 20 seconds.  Hooray.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AR]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Gridswarm and Ultraswarm projects put Bluetooth into fleets of unmanned aircraft]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/gridswarm-and-ultraswarm-projects-put-bluetooth-into-fleets-of/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/gridswarm-and-ultraswarm-projects-put-bluetooth-into-fleets-of/</guid><description><![CDATA[Who's going to need to fly a UAV at 120 MPH? They'll probably fly at 30 - 40 MPH tops in real world applications.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Gridswarm and Ultraswarm projects put Bluetooth into fleets of unmanned aircraft]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/gridswarm-and-ultraswarm-projects-put-bluetooth-into-fleets-of/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/gridswarm-and-ultraswarm-projects-put-bluetooth-into-fleets-of/</guid><description><![CDATA[I imagine they use bluetooth within the swarm, and some other method to connect to the main server.

Units in the field would most likely use a different/proprietary/secure radio protocol.  The ultimate goal is for the swarm to be autonomous (no fixed server) or at least somekind of algorithm to have an individual in the swam act as the central authority.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Gridswarm and Ultraswarm projects put Bluetooth into fleets of unmanned aircraft]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/gridswarm-and-ultraswarm-projects-put-bluetooth-into-fleets-of/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/gridswarm-and-ultraswarm-projects-put-bluetooth-into-fleets-of/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why don't you read properly about it here:http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS2142584362.html Ultraswarm]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[moxi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 2:14AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
