Wireless Weblimp Follows the Crowds & Action in Vancouver
Wireless Weblimp Follows the Crowds & Action in Vancouver

The Weblimp is a crowd-sourced, three-foot-long blimp, equipped with a wireless camera that takes in its surroundings. It moves according to the movement of the crowd around it--if the crowd shifts in one direction, the Weblimp will shift as well. It was created by students at Canada's Simon Fraser University in BC.
