You can order this drone around your home using Alexa

The Aire drone is one of the most ambitious home robotics projects I've ever encountered.
If I hadn't seen it fly in person, I wouldn't even believe it's real. But Aire is real. It actually flies. And I actually asked it to take a photo of me using Alexa.
On Kickstarter, Aire is advertised as a "self-flying robotic assistant for the home." The basic idea is that the drone is smart enough to keep itself upright in the air and avoid obstacles, so you can safely fly it indoors without crashing into too many lamps or small dogs. You can remotely control the drone with your phone to check a suspicious situation when you're away from home, or to video conference with your family (there's a built-in microphone and speaker). https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2017/9/19/16333920/aire-home-drone-alexa-security-camera-robot
