Germany To Test Anti-Graffiti Drones
Germany's Deutsche Bahn announced its plans to test small drones, trying to reduce the amount of graffiti being sprayed on its property.
The plan involves the use of airborne infra-red cameras to collect evidence, which could then be used to prosecute vandals who deface property at night.
A company spokesman said drones would be tested at rail depots soon.
Graffiti is reported to cost Deutsche Bahn about 7.6m euros ($10 million) a year.
German media report that each drone will cost about 60,000 euros ($77,496) and fly almost silently, up to 150m (495ft) above ground.
