Making the world safer, one mini helicopter at a time

This unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) could one day be used to monitor high-profile, large-scale events for safety.

The UAV is made by European defence and technology company EADS, which has been showing off the vehicle - along with a number of other research projects - as part of its 'Pulse' demonstration.

Pulse was on show this week at EADS' Innovation Works at Newport in South Wales, which was formally opened by Welsh Assembly First Minister Rhodri Morgan yesterday.
