Tacocopter - Autonomous Flying Robots that Deliver Tacos

Had no idea that something like this was already happening! Simply, incredible:

EDIT: Apparently, this is a hoax (although it is pretty feesible concept given current ai algorithms and gps systems): http://eater.com/archives/2012/03/27/tragedies-the-tacocopter-was-just-a-hoax.php

Thanks to @comptrol for pointing this out.
