It was able to find that, unfortunately, there was somebody on the tracks, but because of the drone, they knew exactly where he was. They were able to guide in first responders,

So they're able to follow the stolen vehicle from the air. They know exactly where he is. They know what he's doing.

He's probably going to go off and steal a bunch more stuff, but the cops know exactly where he is, they know exactly what he's doing,

and the hardest part is making all this stuff work reliably when and where you need it. But the key enabling technology is actually eyesight --

And the output is very similar to how humans see the world. They know where things are. They know what they are, and they can use all of that information to make intelligent decisions.

So the dock, in some ways, turns the drone into something like a cloud server, where these things can be running autonomously, continuously in the background and doing useful work on our behalf.
