The DJI Magic Drone has often been named the best drone of 2016. Now, DJI introduces a video wearable called DJI Goggles that looks like a virtual reality headset. The high-tech gadget allows you to see live images captured by the DJI's Mavic Pro drone. Once you wear the virtual reality goggles, you feel as if you are the pilot of the drone and get an adrenaline rush of flying high. Take a look:

The PC magazine said that the svelte Mavic Pro quadcopter is a small portable drone that does not skimp on functionality. With a black finish and a more angular design, Mavic Pro sits lower to the ground than the Phantom 4 drone. Its 4K camera can record a 4K video up to a speed of 30 frames per second (fps) or 1080 pixel footage at a speed of 96 fps. It means that you can use it to capture a video in slow-motion. It is also the first drone whose camera can rotate from the portrait orientation to the landscape orientation. Its focus ranges from 19 inches to infinity.

The Mavic Pro drone can fly low and high. The sensors facing downward help it to maintain its position when it is close to the ground while the sensors facing forward allow it to avoid obstacles. You can also follow something from the ground in the Terrain Follow mode from a distance that can be set from 1 foot to 33 feet.

The Digital Circuit states that during the high-resolution DJI pilot-view goggles (FPV) launch in September 2016, there was a controlled demonstration in which they were wirelessly connected to Mavics flying around. The goggles have twin 1080-pixel screens that offer crystal-clear views of whatever the Mavic drones were capturing.

While you can see the live images captured by the drone on your tablet screen too, watching them on FPV goggles is different as it shuts out the rest of the world to you and it seems that you are in the cockpit of the drone. Keep out a watch for these 3D HD goggles!
