San Jose has a new high-tech solution to its persistent graffiti problem. 

Mayor Sam Liccardo announced a graffiti-removing drone as the winner of the city's "Unleash your Geek" contest. Entrepreneurs Christopher Farmer and Candace Marbury, a couple from downtown San Jose, demonstrated their prototype drone at the Hammer Theatre Centre in San Jose.
