11.Going to a new school might be hard-you not only have to make new friends,but also have to search an unknown place that is usually large and totally strange to you.Most schools invite seniors to help newcomers.But wouldn't it be more fun if the campus guide was not a human but a drone (无人驾驶飞机)?Let's welcome SkyCall.SkyCall has come into use recently.It was invented by and used in Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Students of MIT describe the:r campus as"one of the most difficult mazes______ in the world.That's why it is important to have SkyCall to help students and visitors find their way around the campus.
But how does it work?Actually the answer is quite simple-the drone flies in front of you and leads the way.It is fitted with a camera,WiFi,GPS navigation and sensors that allow it to find its way.Before using SkyCall,users have to download a SkyCall app,which can communicate the user's exact position to SkyCall.Once SkyCall gets the destination (目的地) from the app,it will start guiding.Like any good tour guide,SkyCall will point out important classrooms or labs along the way.As soon as it completes its task,SkyCall will leave and come to help another lost person.
As a new invention,SkyCall still has some disadvantages.It needs humans to help when it meets closed doors and it is not able to sense other flying objects.But researchers have confidence to perfect it in the near future.
Maybe someday,SkyCall will step out of MIT and enter your school as well.Will you give it a try?
