That link is to an article on "How to Turn Off Smart TV Snooping Features." Nothing to do with a poop pick up drone. Here is a relevant article: https://hackaday.com/2024/09/28/dog-poop-drone-cleans-up-the-yard-so-you-dont-have-to/

I'd prefer if dog onwers did it themselves right away rather than leave it for drones to pick up.
