Drones Direct say that the gadget will allow owners to text or sit on a park bench whilst keeping an eye on their pets on their daily walk.

公司表示，這款無(wú)人機(jī)可以讓狗主人在每天遛狗時(shí)一邊看著小狗，一邊發(fā)短信或者坐在公園的長(zhǎng)椅上休息。

很多小狗可能會(huì)害怕這種機(jī)器，還會(huì)試著逃離它或者攻擊他。

The drone is also unlikely to be able to accurately detect when your pet stops, which could mean it is dragged along unwillingly.

It's illegal for a drone to go out of view, which means you will need to follow closely.

讓無(wú)人機(jī)離開視線是違法的，這就需要人們緊跟著它。

While the drone itself can avoid obstacles, the lead could present a collision risk to other people and objects.

雖然這款無(wú)人機(jī)可以躲避障礙物，但是小狗卻可能有撞到人或物的危險(xiǎn)。

The drone is not available online, so anyone interested in buying one will have to travel to a Huddersfield showroom.

人們無(wú)法在網(wǎng)上買到這款無(wú)人機(jī)，感興趣的人只能到位于哈德斯菲爾德的陳列室購(gòu)買。
