1. *Introduction*
Slide 1: Different companies all over Singapore are planning on deploying drones all
over the country. Those companies have already started testing the devices, mainly in
big areas, like high-rise buildings and shopping malls, specially designated by the
government for the trials.
Slide 2: They are making the drones to try and replace some human labour. The drones
will do jobs like ​delivering parcels, inspecting buildings and providing security. Some
people are concerned about the safety and privacy of themselves.
Slide 3: Shawn Koo, chief technical officer of H3 Zoom, a unit of the firm H3 Dynamics,
which is behind the tests of the drones, said this “Today’s existing building inspection
process is extremely slow, expensive, tedious, prone to accidents, fatigue and human
error,”. The new system will see high-resolution images taken by drones and analysed
to check for defects, with inspections taking a few days rather than a few weeks, as they
do at the moment. H3 Zoom hopes to fully launch the inspections next year.
Slide 4: Thought Provoking Question: How would you feel if a drone or robot took your
job?
