Intel (in collaboration with Ars Electronica Futurelab) showed off 100 small drones swarming in concert to a performance of a bastardized version of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony (incorporating Intel’s jingle). The demonstration was pulled off in Flugplatz Ahrenlohe, Tornesch, Germany, last November, and the swarming stunt won a Guinness World Record for “Most Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) airborne simultaneously.” Intel CEO Brian Krzani showed footage of the event for the first time during his CES keynote talk in January.
