It's not a big skip for us to say we could be able to do things like delivering all that in the future, fine.
But I think what's most interesting is if you think about drones used on farmers, construction sites, et cetera, you don't only want to use a drone to collect the data.
In the future, you'll actually use the drone to actually take actions.
So the first step is to say, hey, look, we can identify there's a pest in a field.
Another drone should come along and actually spray some pesticides.
Or what if that drone wasn't actually a drone in terms of flying, but it was actually a ground rover?
To a piece of software like us, they're very similar in terms of how you would think of how do we control a ground rover versus a drone.
One works in three dimensions, one works in two.
It has some navigational challenges, which actually our software is not designed to solve.
The industry will solve those problems.
So in the future, you can imagine,
All types of drones, those that fly, those that float, those that drive, being working together on a platform like ours to not just detect problems, but actually to solve them.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think one thing that's really interesting about drones and about kind of the technology community is we always have tried to get down to like, hey, what is that single use case?
But with drones, it's actually what we provide is fundamentally very simple.
We fundamentally provide a bird's eye view of a space that people care about.
You can do all sorts of things with a bird's eye view.
It's kind of one of those things we all joke about.
It's like, hey, you want a bird's eye view of any business?
If you're a farmer, it's hard to literally get a bird's eye view.
