yxi 4,999 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Lady Gaga's Super Bowl halftime show featured something never done before: 300 synchronized drones that danced and created the outline of an American flag. The only problem is, anyone shelling out thousands of dollars for their Super Bowl ticket didn't actually see the drone show. That's because Intel's Shooting Star drones and Gaga's terrifying leap from the roof of Houston's NRG Stadium were taped earlier in the week. Federal Aviation Association regulations about drones -- and a ban of drones within 34.5 miles of the stadium on game day -- meant Intel and Gaga had to film the halftime show's opening sequence early. Intel said other factors that played into the decision to pretape the opening scene were possible weather challenges and the fact the stadium is a dome. Intel said the Super Bowl show was the highest a Shooting Star drone has flown. It received a special waiver from the FAA to fly the fleet up to 700 feet in the air. Intel also received an additional special waiver to fly the drones in the more restrictive Class B airspace. "Lady Gaga and the Super Bowl creative team wanted to pull off something that had never been done before, and we were able to combine Intel drone innovation with her artistry to pull off a truly unique experience," Josh Walden, senior vice president and general manager of Intel's new technology group, said Sunday in a press release.https://www.cnet.com/news/super-bowl-lady-gaga-drones-houston-faa/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 98,236 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I want to know when they filmed it and how it didn't leak Cause we had a video of the drones forming "GAGA" but it wasn't on the show, so it wasn't this day. If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
