"1. Drones are increasingly based on cutting-edge smartphone technology (Qualcomm Snapdragon platform).
2. Computer vision, sense-and-avoid and optical tracking become standard in consumer drones.
3. Major software companies integrate drone data into core offerings, taking "reality capture" mainstream.
4. Drones surpass satellites in amount of data gathered and used.
5. Drones become like Wi-Fi."
I think 2 and 4 are quite likely. Sense-and-avoid is already out there, so it's just a matter of getting the price down (although, would you want that in a racer?). I can also see drones being used in many commercial fields, like mineral research and farming.
