Prospect/Prospect Heights Rotary Club
This past Monday I was the guest speaker at the Mount Prospect/Prospect Heights Rotary Club in Mount Prospect. My talk concerned itself with the latest technology presented at the recent Consumer Electronics Show, as well as Drones and possible litigation involving the flying of these unmanned spacecrafts. The 30 minute presentation ended with us flying a drone inside the banquet room of the Mt. Prospect Holiday Inn where the presentation was held.
