Children's toys are becoming increasingly digitized with the Nerf N-Strike Elite Terrascout Drone being an example of how brands are reimagining classic toys to satisfy younger demographics of today.
The drone can be used to sneak around corners and provide live video feedback thanks to the built-in camera. When users have found their target, they can deploy darts and fire at unsuspecting enemies.
The Nerf N-Strike Elite Terrascout Drone provides a live video feed, but it's also capable of providing recording capabilities by allowing users to capture their exploits in 720p. Users can fire a turret-style gun at their target once they have locked on.
The drone is available now for purchase from $200 and upgrades a traditionally analog toy to be more in sync with what young consumers are looking for.
