That’s the headline in Ars Technica today.

The missing elderly man, who has dementia, was located around 1pm Saturday in a 200-acre soybean field after a model drone, equipped with a first-person-view camera, discovered him alive.

“As we were making our way to the back corner to fly it one more time, we noticed a man kind of out in the far field sort of stumbling and looking a little bit disoriented,” drone operator David Lesh told a local news broadcast.

If anyone needs this kind of help in Arizona, please, please let us know!
