So this one is a quadcopter.
這是一個四軸飛行器。
It's a small model helicopter. In a way, it's a toy, no?
一個小型的直升機模型。差不多是個玩具吧。
And so this one was military technology a few years ago, and now it's open-source, easy to use, you can buy it online.
幾年前這還是軍方掌握的技術，現在已經開源了，使用方便，網上都買的到。
DIY Drones is the community; they do this thing called ArduCopter.
這個網站叫DIY Drones，他們設計了一種叫ArduCopter的飛行器。
But then somebody actually launched this start-up called Matternet,
后來有人搞了一個叫Matternet的創業項目，
where they figured out that you could use this to actually transport things from one village to another in Africa,
他們發現，可以用這個飛行器在非洲的村莊間運送物資，
and the fact that this was easy to find, open-source, easy to hack,
正是因為資料好找，都是開源的且易上手，
enabled them to prototype their company really quickly. Or, other projects.

I'm getting a little sick of hearing about the same people on TV over and over and over again,
老是聽這些人出現在電視里講話，煩死我了，
so I decided to do something about it.

Our producers caught up with Kim Kardashian earlier today to find out what she was planning on wearing to her

這個效果不錯，讓我們不必聽到關于金·卡戴珊婚禮的細節。
Okay. So, you know, again, what is interesting here is that Matt found this module that lets Arduino process TV signals,
好。有趣的是，Matt找到了一個模塊，可以讓Arduino處理電視信號，
he found some code written by somebody else that generates infrared signals for the TV,
同時他還找到了別人寫的一些代碼，這些代碼可以向電視傳送紅外信號，
put it together and then created this great project.
他把找到的這些東西組合在一起，做了這個有趣的東西。
