As you can see, the continued growth in the creation of drones only shows the shocking improvement in the world of software and tech devices. Just like Artificial Intelligence, its another fantastic glimpse into the future!
A New Lithium-Metal Battery Takes Flight in Drones
Katie Fehrenbacher for GreenTechMedia: For drone makers, that means a drone could fly farther and longer on a single charge. For example, a drone surveying acres of crop land could fly for an hour instead of just 20 minutes with a standard battery.
How increasing regulation will unleash drone-based potential
Guy Cherni, Opinion Contributor for The Hill: Surprising though it may seem, the key for increasing drone-based value can only come through increased restriction and regulation of the industry.
Drones and the Evolving Smart World
Currently there are millions of drones in circulation, in amateur and professional use. With the continued premise that they are an unrestricted danger, it should warrant thought as to why there are not more major accidents or incidents than are currently being reported.
Amazon drone designed to self-destruct in emergencies. Here's why.
Patrick Caughill for Futurism: The feature would use the onboard computing system to analyze conditions to determine the best course of action.
Drones for Delivery
Drone deliveries drastically reduce the cost of last-mile deliveries while meeting customers demand for receiving their orders as quickly as possible. In Iceland, Flytrexs partner, e-commerce marketplace AHA, has experienced a 60% reduction in cost per delivery.
Drones in the Wind Industry
Drone-based inspections provide cost reduction and revenue enhancement opportunities of over $600/turbine when compared to ground-based inspections. The savings value is two folds ($1200/turbine) when compared to corrective/reactionary maintenance.
Tracking rogue drones with DJI's new Aeroscope system
Lauren Goode for The Verge: Martino calls this box "the gizmos," but its real name is Aeroscope. Its DJIs new solution for detecting rogue drones that are flying nearby.
Colleges Are Marketing Drone Pilot Courses, but the Career Opportunities Are Murky
Elizabeth Woyke for MIT Technology Review: At least 15 community colleges offer them, but its not clear how many students parlay their new skills into jobs.
Interview with Ivan Tolchinsky, Founder and CEO of Atlas Dynamics
The Atlas Pro is particularly suited to infrastructure inspection, emergency response, security and reconnaissance. The Blue-J fixed-wing UAV is ideally for security HLS missions and long-range infrastructure inspections
U.N. Aviation Arm Seeks to Establish Global Drone Guidelines
