Very large kites were capable of lifting a camera into the air to take photos.
Kites were first invented in ancient China over 2,000 years ago. It is believed that the Chinese philosopher Mozi was one of the first individuals to develop kites as objects for military signaling and measuring distances.
The three main types of kites are flat kites, which have a simple design and rely on a taut surface for lift; box kites, characterized by their three-dimensional structure that enhances stability and lift; and delta kites, known for their triangular shape and ability to fly well in varying wind conditions. Each type offers unique flying characteristics and can be used for different purposes, from recreational flying to artistic displays.
It is believed that the ancient Chinese were among the first to use kites, possibly around 3000 years ago. They used kites for various purposes such as signaling in military operations, measuring distances, and as a form of entertainment.
