Frotcom in space!
On September 20, 2011, a team of Slovenian
engineers and enthusiasts, under the auspices of Audi
Slovenia and as a part of the campaign for the new
Audi A6 Avant, launched a stratospheric balloon into
space to an altitude of over 25,000 meters. The probe
was equipped with two cameras, radar, so that
aircrafts were able to avoid the probe, and a Frotcom
GPS tracker. The tracking device was needed for the
landing location of the probe. As soon as the probe landed, Frotcom Slovenia
forwarded them coordinates and in no time the probe was found.
We already knew that Frotcom was a product out of this world, but finally we
have the proof! To watch a video of planet earth taken by this probe during the
journey in space, check out http://youtu.be/FD0Fn4X8EhQ.
