Skye Intelligence Technology has unveiled a new auto follow drone that has been created to provide the world’s very first social sharing autonomous drone that is capable of precisely following you wherever you may need to go.
Videos recorded by the drone can then be quickly and easily edited and shared using the Orbit companion application that can be installed on smartphones and tablets and supports both iOS and Android devices.

The Orbit drone is equipped with a patented auto follow drone technology and flight control system and includes SGIT tracking technology to make it as easy as possible to use, allowing you to focus on what you are doing rather than whether your drone is working or auto following. Check out the promotional video below to learn more about the Orbit auto follow drone inspiration, features and functionality.
Skye created the Orbit drone for those who have amazing adventures and who want to quickly and effortlessly share them. We made aerial filming easy and Orbit is your flying personal photographer. You just turn it on, activate flight, mark the subject to follow, and go! When you’re ready to edit your video, our in-app suite complete with music and filters does the job. In one click, your video is uploaded to Facebook, Wechat, and other social networks.
No matter if you are running, biking, hiking or skiing, Orbit will keep following you. Orbit will free your hands and let you focus on having fun and enjoying the moments. Wear the tracker, set the filming parameters in the app, frame yourself on the screen, and Orbit will never let you out of its sight. It’s like how a duckling trails after its mother — always close enough, but never strays too far.
Many drones now have the auto-tracking function, however, their tracking technology is not as sophisticated and precise like Orbit. With GPS, computer vision, and our SGIT tracking technologies working together seamlessly and complementary, Orbit has the most precise tracking system. It will be a perfect outdoor companion to capture your best moments. You can even share the videos and photos to network easily and instantly via Skye app.
