Re:Quadcopters Can Now Visually Track Targets More Effectively by mortenjorck on Friday October 27, 2023 @06:31PM (#38044856)
Apprehend, not in the foreseeable future.

Chase, however, I'm surprised we haven't been seeing for at least a few years. Here in Chicago, following a high-profile bystander death resulting from a police pursuit, the department adopted a new pursuit policy that effectively bans vehicular pursuits in a majority of situations.

While many contend that this policy goes too far, it's indisputable that vehicular pursuits are dangerous. The potential for tracking, for example, a robbery suspect from the air (with a considerably lower bar than scrambling one of the city's two police helicopters) via drone seems like an obvious win for safety, both in reducing dangerous pursuits and apprehending dangerous offenders.
