Antigravity releases new accessories for controlling drones with gestures

Antigravity introduces the Follow Me bundle for the A1 drone, adding hardware remotes and gesture-based tracking features.

Explore the specs for the watch remote, ring remote, and pricing options.


New ways of controlling and monitoring

The system allows users to fly alone, without the need for bulky goggles and a basic controller in areas where line-of-sight rules apply.

The watch features a touchscreen, manual button, and USB-C charging port, with a battery that lasts about five hours. It also has a built-in positioning system, which combines with optical tracking to help the drone follow its target more accurately. The ring has a sensitive fabric strap and comes with a USB-C charging handle.

Through the controls, users can give movement commands by pointing and moving their hand. Rotating the arm and wrist inward brings the drone closer, while the opposite movement moves it away. The watch’s touchscreen also allows control of takeoff, video functions, flight paths, and programmed movements, such as vertical spirals and passes over landscapes. Propeller guards snap onto each pair of propellers to protect against collisions.
