Easily Capture Cinematic Clips, Powered By Unprecedented A.I.

From the makers of the award winning Hover Camera Passport, Hover is excited to unveil the next generation of autonomous drones, the Hover 2, reinvented with groundbreaking A.I. technology.

Hover 2 introduces an entirely new drone experience giving you gorgeous shots of your life from every angle with unprecedented ease. Innovations like Optical Radar and cutting-edge A.I enable industry-leading obstacle avoidance and tracking features. Imagine your shot and let Hover 2 do the rest. The company is raising money for development and production of the aircraft on Kickstarter

Ease and usability are at the center of every decision we’ve made, so you can truly immerse yourself in the moment as Hover 2 captures them for you. Select between 4 preset shots with AutoFrame and Hover 2 will fly into position, frame, and capture the shot for you with the tap of a button. Choose between Waist-Up, Full-body, Backdrop, and Birds-eye.

Omni-Follow keeps you in the frame from any angle, allowing more freedom in movement and creativity. Unlike traditional follow modes that only follow from behind, Hover 2 can follow you from the front, back, side, or switch between all three in the same shot.

Thanks to the Optical Radar, which is always focused on the direction of movement, while the main camera is focused on you, meaning Hover 2 can avoid obstacles even while flying sideways or backwards. Major leaps in tracking algorithms can now lock onto unique characteristics to provide perpetual tracking precision and stability.

Pivot follow keeps the Hover 2 stationary as the camera tracks your movements to keep you in the center of the frame.

TrackShot flight paths are inspired by classic film techniques for you to capture videos of you and your friends with cinematic flair. Hover 2 keeps you as the focal point as it navigates around you, even when you move.

Hover 2’s proprietary Optical Radar is a swiveling stereo sensor that gives the drone depth perception in every direction.

Combined with SLAM 3D mapping, VIO (Visual Inertial Odometry), and path planning features, the drone can navigate new environments with 360º obstacle avoidance and bypass obstacles while tracking a target in real time. These cutting-edge algorithms are powered by Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon processor.

Hover 2's computer vision system is able to accurately lock onto the target even after significant changes in appearance and shape of the target. By modeling the environment and monitoring the surrounding figures, our algorithm can accurately assess the cause of the obstruction and intelligently adjust its tracking strategy.

Hover 2’s compact, foldable design allows for ultra-portability on all your adventures. Hover 2 is available in the sleek, classic black version, that is both lightweight and sturdy. It's design is based on the award-winning design of Hover Camera Passport, recipient of the Red Dot and iF design awards. We believe you shouldn’t have to choose between safety, portability, and style.

Capture breathtaking aerial footage in BlastOff mode, and control the drone from up to 3 miles away when paired with the BlastOff controller. Aerially enhanced propeller guards offer improved aerodynamics and increases flight time up to 23 minutes, expanding your creative possibilities.

The Palm Pilot auto-pairs with the Hover 2 to get you flying in no time. Its ergonomic design lets you control the drone one-handed and gives you shortcuts to your favorite flight and capture features. Perfect for on-the-go activities and frees your mobile device for other uses.
