Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many believe that unmanned aerial vehicles or drones are a recent invention, unmanned flight has a rich history that goes all the way back to ancient times. The first systems that can be specified under the modern definition of unmanned aerial vehicles or drones include reconnaissance drones developed and deployed during the Cold War period. Today, such systems have evolved and can have different designs. In the last twenty years, many drones with different aerodynamic characteristics, flight endurance, methods and places of launch and acceptance, and even more diverse purposes have been developed. The achievements of modern science, technique, and technology, especially in the field of microelectronics and control systems, have made it possible to design and manufacture drones that are capable of performing controllable flight in a wide range of altitudes, speeds, and distances while performing complex and diverse tasks with almost the same efficiency as well as manned aircraft.

Download or read book Drones APPLICATIONS ANDROID UTILITIES FOR SMARTEST INNOVATION IN IOTS COMPUTING written by Engr Dr Jazuli S and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-08 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Drones are system of interconnected devices carrying sensors, fully autonomous, connected to the Internet, providing a perspective from the air that's not easy to reach. The device is empowered with the capacity to gather a half terabyte of multimedia data (information) per hour per drone. The latest innovation and advancements in Smart Phones, Mobile & Cloud Computing, Computer and Software have enhanced new opportunities for Drone. The app stores had already been saturated with some specialized customizable Drones software. The availability of such app makes it increasingly downloadable for anyone to access on their Drones from these app stores. These apps enable the user to control many features of their drones from the Smart Phones, Tablets, Laptops, PDAs and Computers. These apps enables Turning lights on and off, making sounds, controlling motors, taking pictures and videos, manoeuvring the Drone and many more functions can be controlled with the help of these apps. Drones can carry several varieties of sensors which may include temperature or humidity or high definition cameras for data gathering. These Drones are empowered and supported with Wi-Fi connection which are remotely controllable through any mobile device with greater autonomy. The essence is to have Drones capable of ubiquitous response in real time and in motion in any kind of scenario. The device operator can also connect other hardware to their Drone to capture data during flights and store it in the centralized cloud (data warehouse) for analytical processing. They can also process the same data on any mobile device chosen by the user. A fleet of Drones can also be managed by certain apps which help in a number of ways. The intent here is not reinventing the ground control situation, but to evolve it to an open architecture so drone owners can reuse the software. Android are associated with several suite of proprietary software developed by Google known as Google Mobile Services(GMS), that frequently comes preinstalled on all the android devices. Prominent among such software include device Core apps such as Gmail, the application store, Digital distribution platform Google Play and associated Google Play Services development platform, and usually includes the Google Chrome web browser and Google Search app, (Khanna & Singh, 2016). Software and application developers have consolidated on the use of Android technology and innovation to launch into the deep to develop Mobile Apps, which are distributed through App Stores, predominately Google Play. On the account of being developed and managed as Google product, Android users are given the opportunity to link their mobile device to other Google products, such as Cloud Storage, Email Platforms, and Video Services, (Gawer & Cusumano, 2014). In Modelling the society into its components and functional economic units, the economists should give adequate attention to the newest and fundamental drift, which is the emergence of Software as Products and as Services (SaaS), Infrastructures as Services (IaaS), Platforms as Infrastructures and as Services (PaaS) and the economic impact it has on the whole States economy and to overall national development. In the recent time, the culture of the work space, economy, wealth generation, Knowledge and Information creation and distribution has significantly changed due to increasingly knowledge of ICT tools, Software Service and Software Engineering Development Paradigm. The twenty first century job environment will require new skills, digital adjustment and the possibility of generating wealth where no physical resources existed but they are not as difficult to comprehend as some believed. The digital scenario will spell how Innovative Software Enterprise can be used to build smart economy and sustain it. The future could be far brighter for Education with increase in productivity and supply chain as many information manufacturing companies will emerge.
