File this under: Things we didn\u2019t even know we wanted. German graphic designer Eric Huismann\u00a0got some attention this week after releasing concept art for a sleek Apple drone.<\/h2>\n

All images from\u00a0quadrocopter.org<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Between Amazon’s delivery bots<\/a> and Zuckerberg’s fleet of flying Facebook machines<\/a>, tech companies are finding reasons to get into the drone business<\/strong>. That’s why it was really no surprise when images of a new Apple Quadcopter<\/a> started making their way around the web this week.<\/p>\n

\"apple<\/p>\n

Of course, \u00a0the concept art didn’t come from Apple<\/a>. Rather, they were the work of\u00a0German graphic designer Eric\u00a0Huismann.\u00a0<\/em>Huismann certainly captured the curves and elegant style<\/strong>\u00a0that the public expects from Apple\u2019s design team<\/a>, but the mocked-up machine has more than good looks.<\/p>\n

\"apple<\/a>Huismann\u2019s quadcopter concept comes with four video cameras that can record in concert, capturing and streaming real-time HD panoramic footage from high in the air. Considering YouTube<\/a> and Facebook\u2019s<\/a> recent embrace of 360 degree video<\/strong>, this iDrone\u2019s multi-camera design makes perfect sense.\"appleUnfortunately, fans of Apple gear will just have to settle for the Apple Watch<\/a> and new MacBook<\/a>, since, again, this is just a concept. Nonetheless, we\u2019ll keep our eyes on the Cupertino<\/a> skies<\/strong> and hope that Tim Cook<\/a> decides to take Apple in a new high-flying direction.<\/p>\n
