2.  Early capsuleers were forced to interface directly
with ship scanners, which were combined to paint a
virtual image in the capsuleer's mind. This, however,
proved too stressful for most capsuleers, and an
alternate solution was sought.
 The first surviving aerial photograph is a picture of
Boston taken in 1860 from a hot air balloon, from
about 690 yards up.
 In 1903 a European photographer designed cameras
that could be mounted on carrier pigeons.

3.  Adjusting them for capsuleer use was the first priority. Originally
only a single drone was used, but this provided a flat field of vision
and meant tight maneuvers relied less on capsuleer skill and
reflexes and more on incoming telemetry data from the ship's
sensors. This was solved by the addition of a second drone. Working
in tandem with each other, these two drones can provide a
stereoscopic view and can quickly focus on any object.

6.  The most common camera drones are used by capsuleers to allow
them a visualization outside their ships. These consist of a pair of
cameras in a housing, which are controlled by on board computer
systems. They are typically cylindrical in shape, to allow for
telescopic views of distant objects. Many have magnetic fins or
other protrusions that allow them to be controlled more precisely.

7.  These drones are smaller than those used on
capsuleer ships, typically being about the
size of a human head. These drones utilize a
weak, heuristic AI that automatically take
shots from different angles. The drones
automatically select their shots, with
different drones tasked with capturing wide
angles, close ups, and different performers.

8. Camera drones are used in the security industry to
provide guards with mobile eye. They are tied into
sensor systems and, when something suspicious is
detected, are deployed in large numbers and
congregate on the location. From there, they can
transmit images and video directly back to a central
area, providing security forces with advanced
information. Additionally, they can tail fleeing
intruders a great distance, making it much simpler
to track and subdue them. Because of their
maneuverability, speed, and numbers they are
difficult to disable or shake.
