OK, it doesn't have a super smart pilot program, but still...... a wearable camera drone: http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/11/03/...N0IN25Y20141103

Just a note that I think this is a design concept and they didn't have a working prototype.

As far as I know they do have a workin prototype.
I think that I have seen a video of it in use somewhere.

It it only an elaborate way to make a selfie though.
The drone flies in an arc, snaps a picture and then and lands in your hands again.

I was in Ross the other day and saw a remote control helicopter with a built-in video camera. It wasn't as tiny as this, but still, we've got the tech.
