NOW that’s called a selfie!

This new gadget is what everyone would love to have – a camera which flies off to take your photo whenever you release it from your wrist.

The Nixie is a hands-free camera that allows you to take pictures from a totally new perspective — you just release it with a flick of the wrist and it will fly off ‘past your arm’s reach’, composes the perfect shot, and snap away. So no more embarrassing selfies now!

The wearable drone is one of the finalists in ‘Intel’s Make It Wearable’ challenge and is still in the development stages, but we can see it going far.
