Created by a company called Campus Guardian Angel, the drones remain on their charging pads in secure, multiple boxes – each containing six drones – at school locations until a shooting incident is detected. They are flown remotely by operators at the firm's Austin headquarters.
The drones are primarily there to aid law enforcement by clearing corners and rooms like a police dog. The live feeds can also help confirm a shooter's identity and location, aiding with situation awareness and threat assessment.
While the drones are armed, they use non-lethal or less-lethal weaponry, allowing them to distract, disorient, confront, degrade, and incapacitate shooters, according to the company. They carry pepper rounds and a glass breaker for quickly entering classrooms.
Pale pasty nerds won't even have to walk into school to do their mass shootings soon. They'll just remote in from home in their pajamas to hack the drone to shoot up their classmates.
Awaken the swarm.
So, how long until the drones get hacked, malfunction or get launched early due to a false alarm? I give it six months at best.
Stolen by the usual suspects.

That sounds like so much fun.
