My brain still refuses to believe that this is a real thing that was actually made, instead of a prop from a Snow Crash movie
So, who else wants to watch gladiatorial combat between drones?
Assume a wide open bubble of transparent bulletproof whatever, filled with obstacles suitable for each individual match, surrounded by audience seats like a stadion and populated by cheap camera drones (because collateral damage) and not-so-cheap armored camera pylons, tracking interesting events and streaming them to the audience which can follow things with their naked eyes and devices alike. Drones operated either with remote control or their independent AI, operators in their own extra-armored bubbles at the opposite ends of the stage, surrounded by screens and whatever they wish. Almost everything is permitted within the bubble; from jamming to hacking to the most devious weapons and countermeasures.
