Crash Test Dummies Get Hit With Drones To Keep Humans Safe

<b> by Jeff Donlan</b>Researchers at Virginia Tech </a>are investigating the risk of injury from a drone collision.

The data will assist the Federal Aviation Administration in developing regulations for the unmanned aircraft. The FAA could require drones to have bumpers, enclosed rotors, or airbags. Until a decision is made, researchers can keep crashing drones into dummies for our amusement.
