Applications For Drones Or UAVs
As the technology improves so the uses for drones increase, armed with an array of sensors, commercial drones are becoming a new source for digital information.
While 60% of drone usage currently relates to communications and media such as for film making and commercial photography, new higher-value applications are on their way, as drones have a significant advantage in terms of precision, convenience, and cost over more traditional solutions such as satellites and helicopters. With the development of new drone-mounted sensors, such as thermal cameras, RGB cameras, Lidar 3D mapping, and new advanced software to process the data captured, this is paving the way for increased digitalization of industrial processes.
