Referred to as drones, UAV's or unmanned aerial vehicles, they are still a cool concept. They have been around for several years, they were just referred to as radio controlled aircraft. I was flying a UAV back in the 70's. The technology is considerably better now.
In the event that you are thinking of obtaining any of these kind of aircraft you should look at some evaluations of the most popular and best ones at CameraDronesOnline.com. http://www.delicious.com/steven310/aerial

Camera Drone Reviews and Online Store
Camera drone UAV's are becoming more and more popular and more affordable as competition increases. You can get really inexpensive models that do have a camera and will take video or stills. These would be in the toy/trainer class. They will not have great video or audio, but are a lot of fun and more of a learning tool.
Then there are the really expensive ones that also take video or stills but have FPV (first person view) capability. Depending on the model you can fly with a cockpit view up to about a mile away and record video. These are professional class and used by aerial photographers and videographers for some really great shots.
If you are considering getting a drone you should read some camera drone reviews before purchasing.

Heli Max 1SQ V Cam Review
I was not sure which class to put this in but finally decided on the toy class. It does have a camera, but you are not going to get the great videos that you can with some of the hobby class. At $129, it really is a great little quad though. New pilots should be able to get one of these in the air and be flying around in no time at all.
For the price it does have pretty decent video from the built in camera. You can turn the camera on and off in flight. It records audio with the video but all I get is wind noise. The camera is adjustable from facing forward to shooting straight down and there is an LED that comes on when recording. The LED is very hard to see though. Shooting video does reduce flight time. If I just fly with no video I get 8 to 10 minutes, if I continually record, I get less than 5 minutes of flight. You can also take stills with the RTF version.Read More Here
