Fidelity protecting Sun City with autonomous drones

Security group Fidelity ADT has launched a new drone dock on the roof of The Palace of the Lost City, Sun City's most luxurious hotel and resort.

From this dock, Fidelity's autonomous DJI aerial drones will launch and provide live surveillance and enhanced operational visibility to the resort's security efforts.

This will only be impressive when they equip the drones with AI voices and mini-turrets.

Had a look at the Sun website. It costs 11k a night for their Junior suite. Guess they will make that money back from a few bookings.

I imagine the drones will simply be a nuisance constantly flying overhead and will provide little in the way of real security. Imagine relaxing by the pool with a cocktail and have drones buzzing around and spying on you.

I was wondering about this. Once you've been to other resorts around the world too Sun City becomes rather mundane. Also its insanely expensive i was in the area 2 months ago and thought lets pop in to see - It would have cost over R1000 just to get through the front gate lol.
