The agency will test a small drone at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey during the President’s visit to the club later this month, Reuters reports.

The drone will reportedly sport electro-optical and infrared cameras to monitor vehicles, buildings, and people from the air and it will be tethered with a microfilament cable to operators on the ground, ensuring it has a constant power supply that allows it to stay in the air for an indefinite amount of time.
