Hannover Messe
From April 8th to 12th, 2012, the Flying Machine Arena (FMA) was a guest of Hannover Messe, a leading showcase for industrial technology held annually in Hannover, Germany. In 26 halls, the 5000+ exhibitors presented innovative applications ranging from energy generation to vacuum technology, as well as nanotechnology and industrial automation. The Flying Machine Arena was part of the “Automation & IT tour” and attracted large crowds who were amazed by quadcopters dancing to music, balancing inverted pendulums, learning flips, throwing balls, and building a small styrofoam-brick tower.
