Razer is the world’s first laptop manufacturer to introduce this novel concept, and did so at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. What we have here is indeed a hot, luxurious new product. The laptop can handle both the most demanding games as well as professional multitasking.

Key characteristics

The laptop is dominated by its three screens with a size of up to 17.3’’, which allow users to focus on up to three tasks simultaneously or significantly expand their desktop size – for either work or gaming. Each of the screens supports 4K resolution (meaning a total resolution of 11520x2160). Hardware-wise, the laptop is very well equipped; it has 32GB of RAM and a high-performance NVIDIA GTX 1080 graphics card supporting NVIDIA Surround technology. The computing power of the laptop is guaranteed thanks to the use of an Intel Core i7 Kaby Lake processor. One constructional characteristic of the laptop is its luxurious variability. In the basic setup, only a single panel is used – but whenever you want another screen, you can easily eject it.

The price of the luxurious laptop has not been set yet; however, it is expected to easily exceed 100 thousand Czech crowns. For now, there’s just a prototype. So, will you be anticipating its public release as well?

Drones offer us unusual and luxury views of areas where human eyes normally cannot see. How does it feel to look at the world from the perspective of a bird?

Interview: Drones – a different view of the world by David Dostal

Dron

I had a talk about this phenomenon of our times with David Dostal, a prominent figure and a man who owns 4 drones of various sizes. They are competition indoor as well as outdoor copters. The maximal speed of his most powerful drone is 150 km/h. It has an amazing acceleration from zero to 100 m in approximately 1.5 second.  

David Dostal uses the FPV (First Person View) control system. This kind of control is based on a video signal transmitted from the drone to the pilot’s screen or special googles. The pilot has that luxury feeling that he/she flies the drone from the inside of it. One could say that it is a sort of virtual reality, however, with the difference that it is not virtual but completely real.

Where did you get the idea to own a drone and to fly it?

Towards the end of 2015, I saw a youtube video about competition drones, controlled by the FPV system. I was fascinated so much that I just had to try it. I ordered necessary parts right away and put together my first drone, or as we call it “quadcopter”.

Could you please name 3 things you appreciate about drones?

Freedom
FPV flying is an addiction. Once you start with it, you will never stop. The feeling of moving completely freely in the space is just a breathtaking luxury.

Antipole to ordinary things
On another note, it also beautifully balances everyday business. When I fly, I forget about everything. I enjoy every second in the air. After drone flying, I can always go happily home.

Getting to know new places
Today, I look differently at the landscape than I used to. I look for good flying spots: old abandoned buildings, chimneys, and interesting localities. Sometimes on weekends I go for an all-day trip and visit up to three different flying locations.

Do you have any particular intention with your drones?

Yes, FPV flying and competing with copters. I fly 120km/h, do flips, fly into tree branches, my adrenalin at its maximum, all of that while sitting on the ground. I used to race cars, I enjoy speed.

Can you describe your best experience with this “modern toy”?

I have many positive experiences every day. But what I remember very well is my second FPV flight. I flew way too high above some trees by accident. It was an early summer evening. Suddenly I saw a large hot-air balloon in front of me on the horizon, which I did not see from the ground before. It was then that I realize that flying offers a completely different view of the world and many opportunities.

Do you have a flying license? What do you need for that?

No, I do not. It is my hobby. I do not do it for commercial purposes, so I do not need a license. If you fly commercially, i.e. if you do aerial videos for commercial purposes, you need to obtain a permit from UCL (Civil Aviation Authority). If you want to get this permit, you have to supply your drone’s technical manual, conclude appropriate insurance and a few other things. It will cost you approximately 40,000 CZK.

What was your dream as a child?

It was not flying. As a kid, I wanted to be an interior designer. That was before I discovered the value of freedom is. Since than I do everything necessary to be independent, thus having the freedom to decide and go wherever I want to. This is also reflected in my FPV flying.
