> software to fly the drone into the person... and thats probably around somewhere out there as well.
ardupilot + waypoint nav would do it for fixed locations. The camera identifies a target, gets the gps cooridnates and sets a waypoint. I would be shocked if there wasn't extensions available (maybe not officially) for flying to a "moving location". I'm in the high power rocketry hobby and the knowledge to add control surfaces and processing to autonomously fly a rocket to a location is plenty available. No one does it because it's a bad look for a hobby that already raises eyebrows.
> a hobby that already raises eyebrows
Sounds very interesting, but may I ask how this actually works as a hobby? Is it purely theoretical like analyzing and modeling, or do you build real rockets?
The Ukrainian drones that took out Russia's long range bombers used ArduPilot and AI. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Spiderweb)
