Abstract

Autonomous drones, known as AI drones, have been working without human intervention. It is doing something like navigation, avoiding obstacles, and taking picture recognition without explicit human direction, thanks to AI technology. It's an advantage of AI-based drones that they are capable of flying without human intervention. This can be used for missions such as monitoring searches and rescue operations in remote areas where human lives are at risk. Because of their sophisticated cameras and detectors, AI-based drones are able to collect and analyze large amounts of data in real-time. With this data, comprehensive maps may be made, locations of interest can be found, and the situational awareness of human operators can be improved. These days, the concept of a “smart city” intrigues everyone. Advanced technologies such as AI, blockchain, the IoT, drones, and many more are integrated.
