Parrot: surveillance for civilians

Big Brother surveillance indoctrination for civilians:
aerial drone indoctrination for the next generation:
Parrot’s AR Drone is a $300 quadrotor that you can control with your iPad, iPod, or iPhone. 
It comes equipped with two cameras (one facing forward, the other down) that send their video straight to the mobile device in your hands. Fire up one of its augmented reality apps, and the AR Drone will alter that camera feed so you can see superimposed digital graphics – your flying robot is now a real world video game.

from what I hear, the Parrot drone is also a sort of perk contained in the multiplayer mode
of the newly released video game: Homefront
