Shares of GoPro Inc (NASDAQ: GPRO) had a nice rally on Wednesday. Although the company’s stock has been a high flier since its IPO, the rally was backed by news from various sources that GoPro is about to launch its own lines of drones. With Amazon and Google experimenting with their own drones for commercial purposes, it seems right now GoPro will be the only company that'll focus on launching drones for consumers.

CNBC's Dominic Chu reported on the rumors and news surrounding the company’s entry into the drone space.
