DRONE
TECHNOLOGY
Definition

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a drone,

is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard.
UAVs are a component of an unmanned aircraft system (UAS);
which include a UAV,
a ground-based controller,
and a system of communications between the two. The flight of
UAVs may operate with various degrees of autonomy:
either under remote control by a human operator or autonomously
by onboard computers
1. Uses of Drone
Journalism,
Filming
and Aerial □Drones are starting to be used in
photography sports photography and
cinematography. They were used in
the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi
for filming skiing and snowboarding
events. Another group considering
using drones is journalists. The
ability to collect footage and
information for use in live broadcast
is a real possibility in the near future.
Aerial photography for the real
estate market is becoming more
popular also.
Shipping/
Delivery
□Amazon, UPS and DHL has
started using drones. Drones
can be used to deliver small
packages, pizzas, letters,
medicines, beverages etc. at
short distances
Disaster
Management
/Search & □Equipped with high definition cameras
and radars, Drones can give rescuers access
Rescue to a higher field of view without the need for
wasting resources on manned helicopters.
And, because of their small size, they can
provide a close-up view of areas where
larger aerial vehicles would prove perilous
or inefficient. The search and rescue mission
is a battle against time, particularly in harsh
conditions, and drones become a powerful
tool because of the ease of deployment.
Besides locating victims, a Drone could
potentially be used to “drop in supplies” to
an otherwise unreachable location.
Geographic
Mapping
□Drones can reach difficult-to-access
locations like eroded coastline or
mountaintops and acquire very high-
resolution data to create 3D maps.
The technology is already available
to amateurs and professionals,
enabling them to collect data and
instantly download the imagery.
Some are even using the collected
data to contribute to crowd-sourced
mapping applications like
OpenStreetMap.
Fun/Hobby

□Plenty of hobbyists are

picking up drones to play
around with, both by flying
remotely and by programming
drone AI (artificial-
intelligence). It can be used in
many ways to capture videos,
photographs and drone racing.
2. Occupation that
uses drone
Military

□We’d be remiss to not mention

military drone jobs in this list. Some
of the most controversial drone uses
are by the military. Often these very
large drones are used for either
surveillance or bombing runs, and of
course, they come with a load of
potential moral baggage as well. We
could probably fill the comments
section debating the positives or
negatives of military drones, to no
real avail. Still, the military is hiring.
Movie
Filming
□A lot cheaper than an hourly
helicopter rental, and easier to
zip into small, urban, or even
remote spaces, drones plus
small HD video cameras are a
match made in cinematic
heaven.
Agriculture

□Drones have immense potential for easily

gathering data on crops throughout the
season. Want to survey acres of crops from
the comfort of your front porch? Got it.
Want to see where your cattle are across
that ridge? Keep the horse in the barn, the
drone is on it. Check moisture, diseases,
storm damage, and more all with the help of
your handy flying robot device. And because
farms are mostly in isolated countryside,
farmers don’t have to worry about peeping
in anyone’s windows or violating any
privacy laws.
