Is there an accessory but really miniature drone that one could buy for cellphone ? I am thinking on the lines of the airpods. Previously there used to be really massive headphones and now we have small airpods. If only a drone like buzzing bees could be invented and a pack that one could buy we don't need to carry massive telephoto/zoom lenses through airport security. All one would need is a cellphone and they could launch the really miniature drone to take pictures of wildlife from far away. May be in the future....

Drones are very noisy. That issue would have to be worked out.

Such a small drone would get lost in the wind very quickly.

I have a DJI Mini 2. It is surprisingly quiet and folds small enough to fit a jacket pocket. To make is small, the sensor has to be tiny, yet it takes good photos and videos. The real limit to making smaller is having enough power to carry a battery.

That said, it would be fun to see a smaller drone that operates only on a cell phone. It would be awkward without the control sticks.
