Research Summary

An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot on board that operates either autonomously or under remote control by a human operator. UAVs come in various shapes and sizes, from small consumer quadcopters to large military surveillance drones. They are equipped with different technologies, including cameras, sensors, and communication systems, enabling them to perform a wide range of tasks. UAVs find applications in various industries, including agriculture, surveillance, filmmaking, environmental monitoring, and disaster response. The versatility and maneuverability of UAVs make them valuable tools for tasks that may be hazardous or impractical for manned aircraft, providing cost-effective and efficient solutions for aerial data collection and analysis.
