Drones are a different kind of new technology from what we’re used to. They offer something else: the conquest of physical space, the extension of society’s compass, the ability to be anywhere and see anything.
For the past few years, one of the most exciting class of gadgets on display has been drones. They got cheaper, lighter, and easier to use even as they became more powerful.
We believe 2015 is an important year for drones as they will change how brands interact with consumers in both advertising and events, and here's everything you need to know about the drone technology.
Drones and their Increasing Number of ApplicationsJeffrey Funk
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze how drones are becoming economic feasible for an increasing number of applications as their costs fall. The costs of drones are falling as the costs of various ICs (controllers, GPS) and MEMS sensors rapidly fall, their performance rises (e.g., accuracy of GPS) and as the cost of carbon fibers fall at a somewhat slower pace than do ICs and MEMS. These falling costs are making drones economically feasible for a number of applications such as producing movies, TV reporting, surveillance, and delivery.
In past couple years, drones have been receiving a lot of attention. This presentation provides background, history, and applications of drones from multiple sources.
In accordance with the present dependence on UAVs and Drones, these Unmanned Aerial Vehicles have proved them a great asset. These UAVs are expected to serve a great role in almost every field like military, agriculture, police, disaster management, industrial management, educational field etc. in the coming future which has been described in the given slides.
Drones used in every field , in order to get suitable drone for suitable business, it is essential to check before buying. You must have knowledge about drones,its types and its features. In this presentation we have discussed basic things about drone, its features, advantages,disadvantages and types of drones. Also check our website to know more about best drone advisor and drones.
Drone use by firefighters isn't really new, departments all over have been using drones to assist in putting out fires for several years. While it is true that irresponsible use of UAVs is a major problem for fire departments, the responsible use of this technology can also be greatly beneficial to firefighting efforts – see how drones are being used for firefighting.
Using airplanes and helicopters for imagery collection is EXPENSIVE in remote areas.
Large aircraft carry large sensors that can image at large scales (3cm and less) and large areas with high accuracy
Small UAVs can image small areas at relatively small scales (4cm and up easily) with average accuracy.
Large aircraft have to fly high and in the clouds.
The slides give a brief description of the technical characteristics, classification, level of autonomy, types of drones available, merits, demerits, future development, and applications.

Now, the internet is expanding again — coming to all of the everyday devices found in our homes, businesses, and cities.
We’ve created a slideshow highlighting the most important ways the Internet of Everything market will develop, the benefits newly connected devices will offer consumers and businesses, and the potential barriers that could inhibit growth.
This paper will discuss three different aspects of surveying technology, namely the types of surveying technologies available for use in a quarry environment, the types of applications the surveying technologies are used for and comparative performance of different surveying technologies in measuring stockpile volumes.
Auto Pilot Controlled Flying Wing (UAV) For QRF (Quick Reaction Armed Forces)iosrjce
An UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), or the drones, or the RC aircrafts are now a days in trends with
the hobbyists, armed forces or the kids for playful purposes. But if we see look around us, we will find that these
drones can help us in day to day life in saving some life which are in danger. Drones are prepared on the basis
of some particular application like aerial photography etc. But we the upcoming engineers should hold our
responsibilities and prepare something useful for the man on the front that could be a great serving for the
nation and as well as for them who really need this equipment for safeguarding our motherland.

3. What Is A Drone ?
Drones are more formally known as unmanned aerial vehicles
(UAV). Essentially, a drone is a flying robot. The aircraft may be remotely
controlled or can fly autonomously through software-controlled flight plans in
their systems working in conjunction with GPS.
UAVs have most often been associated with the military but they are also used
for search and rescue, surveillance, traffic monitoring, weather monitoring and
fire fighting, among other things.
Fact:- Drones are named after the male bee
4. History Of The Drone
The earliest recorded use of an unmanned aerial vehicle for fighting occurred
on August 22, 1849, when the Austrians attacked the Italian city of Venice with
unmanned balloons loaded with explosives.
The first pilotless aircraft were built during and shortly after World War I.
The first large-scale production purpose built drone was the product of
Reginald Denny Hobby Shops Hollywood. He said low cost RC aircraft would
be very useful for training anti-aircraft gunners. Nearly fifteen thousand drones
made for the US army during World War II to practice against.
The first operational decoy drone was the McDonnell Douglas Quail, which was
carried by Boeing B52 bombers to help them penetrate defended airspace in
the 50’s.
5. History Of The Drone
In May 2006, the (FAA) issued a certificate of authorization which will allow the
Reaper aircraft to be used within U.S. civilian airspace to search for survivors
of disasters.
Use of quadcopters and hexcopters from 2010 for aerial photography
Since 2013 small quadcopters are now readily available for use at home.
Licence regulations began 2013 for commercial operation.
UK there are three classifications for drone use regulated by CAA
0 to 7kg, 7 to 20kg, 20 to 150kg
European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) governing body regulates drone use
above 150kg in European airspace
6. Skylark Where It All Began
12 years ago I began designing and building systems for fixed wing model aircraft
for transmission of video back to the operator
7. Skylark Where It All Began
• Video transmitted to goggles which enabled the operator to fly and control the
plane from FPV (first person view). The planes have full GPS, compass,
altimeter, solid state gyroscope, autopilot.
• TX and RX range 2.5 miles, video down link 15-20 miles.
• Programme the autopilot via PC using waypoints
• Small micro processor controls the plane when required and monitors all
systems including autopilot, batteries, altimeter, gyroscope. Will initiate return
to home if any system is compromised.
• No regulations 12 years ago
9. Regulations & Licence For SUAS
Anyone flying a drone either recreationally or commercially has to take
responsibility for doing so safely. Permission to operate a SUAS (small
unmanned aerial system) for aerial work is required from the CAA (civil
aviation authority).
Theory
Air Law
Theory of Flight
Meteorology
Civil Aviation Procedures (CAPS)
Navigation
Lithium Polymer Batteries
Emergency Procedures
Human Factors
Flight Planning Exercise, and
Operations Manual Guidance
10. Regulations & Licence For SUAS
Ops Manual
After successful completion of the RPCT (remote pilot certificate course test),
candidates have to complete and submit their Ops Manual for approval. This is
completed in the candidate’s own time and requires them to produce a manual
detailing the way in which they operate their SUAS to conform to regulations and
safety standards.
Operational Evaluation (Flight Test)
Once the Ops Manual is deemed and ratified satisfactory, you will be assigned
an evaluator. The evaluator will give you a practical scenario that reflects a
normal task that you can expect from a customer in the future. You will plan the
mission and carry out the practical task at one of the approved operational sites.
Successful completion of the practical task gives students the RPC (remote pilot
certificate) award and ability to apply for PfCO (permission for commercial
operation) from the CAA.
11. Operational Requirements
The aircraft must not be flown:
• over or within 150 metres of any congested area
over or within 150 metres of an organised open-air assembly of more than
1,000 persons
• within 50 metres of any vessel, vehicle or structure which is not under the
control of the person in charge of the aircraft
• within 50 metres of any person except during take-off or landing, the aircraft
must not be flown within 30 metres of any person except for the person in
charge of the aircraft.
Fact: The Chinese EHang 184 can
carry 1 person.

13. Quadcopters
A quadcopter, is a helicopter that is lifted and propelled by four rotors.
Quadcopters generally use two pairs of identical fixed pitched propellers; two
clockwise and two counter-clockwise.
These use independent variation of the speed of each rotor to achieve
control.
By changing the speed of each rotor it is possible to specifically generate a
desired total thrust and so control the quadcopter.
16. Skylark Aerial Drones
Skylark operates three drones commercially, but has 4 experimental long range
fixed wing drones and 1 training quadcopter.
DJI Inspire 1 DJI Inspire Pro3 to 6kg weight
50mph max speed
15000ft max altitude
Climb rate 1000ft/min
