Japanese Olympics

The Olympics in Japan should be starting later today hopefully without any hiccups... 
Already there’s news that the start ceremony will be using a drone light show to spark off the games...

Although I’m not not sure of the aerial cameras use in any of the broadcasts... It would be a shame not to use drones to capture some of the action...

Hopefully safely concerns have been addressed since the drone crash that nearly hit downhill skier 
Marcel Hirscher at Madonna di Campiglio in Italy.  

Despite the mishaps in the past... drones since the 
Sochi Winter Olympics have been able to beat the cable cameras and traditional methods of broadcasts injecting a excitement into the video feed... 
Hopefully with Japanese culture and futuristic technology will bring about this unique filming experience... 

Perhaps a FPV drone instead of the large scale broadcast drones in the past... 
Maybe with multiple camera units to cover the length of the race instead of a single drone that might be exhausted by 20 mins...

Whatever the outcome or method of filming the sports... I look forward to the games.... especially the skateboard competition 😉...
