Your vacation pictures are about to get a major upgrade. Zero Zero Robotics’ new Hover Camera Passport is a drone designed to be your personal travel photographer. This “flying camera,” as the company calls it, is small enough to carry with you and simple enough for a novice selfie-artist to use. Unlike conventional quadcopter drones and their now ubiquitous four-armed design, the Hover Camera Passport’s unique form mimics the size and shape of a hardcover book, and even opens like one to change into flying mode. Not only does this make it easier to transport, acting as its own carrying case, it also leaves the drone free of exposed propellers thanks to its fully enclosed lightweight carbon-fiber construction.

And don't worry if flying a drone seems intimidating; the Hover Camera Passport uses facial recognition technology to follow you around automatically, letting you focus on being the model, not the photographer. If you want more control, just use the simple, intuitive iOS or Android app with just a few taps and swipes. The 13-megapixel camera can be tilted while in flight, and electronic image stabilization provides smooth, steady 4K video of your holiday adventure. And while flight time may seem a bit limited at under ten minutes, it's easy to swap out a fresh battery and keep the fun going.

With the Hover Camera Passport, your vacation selfies can finally show more—including both your arms. gethoverom
