Xiaomi Drone Could Be Watching You

Drone LeaksRumors continue to fly about Xiaomi's new drone, set for unveiling May 25, tomorrow.

Facebook (aka Oculus's owner) is among this group, recently purchasing Two Big Ears, an audio company focusing on audio that works in both augmented and virtual reality sending sound that's directional—much like the way we actually hear. Even better? The tech, tagged Facebook 360 Spatial Workstation, is now available for free.
