1. An unmanned aerial vehicle, comprising:
- an electromagnetic radiation (EMR) sensor to detect a signal indicative of a direction of emission of the signal, the detected signal corresponding to a grid on a printed target;
a controller to determine a location of the unmanned aerial vehicle based on the grid; and
a nozzle to eject a substance based on the direction of emission and the location.

14. A system, comprising:
-
a first electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emitter to emit first EMR and trace a first path with the first EMR; a second EMR emitter to emit second EMR along a second path and trace a second path with the second EMR; and a modulation engine to modulate the first EMR to indicate a position of the first path and modulate the second EMR to indicate a position of the second path. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
