CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Nov. 17 -- The University of Tennessee's Chattanooga campus issued the following news release:
Buzzing like a mammoth insect, the four-prop drone lifts off the ground, rising straight up. Once it reaches about four feet, it hovers for a bit, then slowly settles back to the ground.
It doesn't seem like much of a flight until you understand how it happened.
No handheld controls, no tether, no nothing.
Just brain waves.
