Drone light shows are performed by illuminated groups of drones that arrange themselves into various aerial formations. Almost any image can be recreated in the sky by a computer program that turns graphics into flight commands and communicates them to the drones. However, creating a system that can be flown safely and repeatedly requires a lot of clever engineering work. The flight crew uses a detailed dashboard display on the ground station to prepare drones for flight and continuously monitor status. The drones themselves carry multiple radios operating simultaneously, away from busy WiFi frequencies, to ensure communications are maintained even in busy and noisy radio environments. Shows are flown by certified pilots. Prior to every show, checklists are used to make sure everything is in order: drones are fully operational, batteries are charged, and the flight area is clear. Once these checks are complete, the pilot presses GO and the drones take off on their mission! Regardless, the transition from fireworks to drones will happen gradually. A number of factors have limited the uptake of drone shows: •High cost •Need for regulatory approval •Expensive and limited insurance options •Labor intensive operations •Lack of efficient show design tools •Safety req
