The mass adoption of this revolutionary technology could be affected by the negative connotations often associated with drones.

In 2018, the global drone market was estimated to be worth USD 14 billion and is expected to reach USD 43 billion by 2024.

Kaspersky has launched a new solution designed to help organizations and property owners defend themselves from unauthorized trespassing by civilian drones. Through an exceptional combination of several sensors – including a new approach to drone detection founded by the company using laser scanning – and machine learning technologies, Kaspersky Antidrone can automatically spot, identify and prohibit unmanned aircraft from entering restricted areas. This is all done without damaging the devices.

In 2018, the globa..

Although the buzz about advancements in drone technology has seemed to fade as of late, progress is continually being made on the global forefront. Clean energy, flight optimization, police utility, and both medication and product delivery are just some of the projects taken on by companies seeking to revolutionize this relatively new field.

Utilization of hydrogen fuel sources has been shown in numerous test runs to maximize flight times and reduce the carbon footprint left by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). According to a spokesperson from the “clean tech” British company H2GO, lithium-ion battery implementation only allows the drone flight for less than half an hour, which can be upgraded to almost an hour and a half with the use of hydrogen fuel. Longer flight times -such as a record-breaking 12 hours -have been made possible with the use of liquid hydrogen, lightweight gas cylinders, and drones made of lighter material.

3D printed UAVs may not sound revolutionary to some, but a..

TOKYO—Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502, Toshiba) and Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation (hereinafter “ESS”), companies dedicated to providing industry with solutions that raise operational efficiency and productivity, have developed a drone-based inspection technology for complex industrial facilities, such as power plants, oil refineries and chemical manufactures. The new solution comprises 3D laser measurement technology, a drone-mounted video camera, optimized flight route creation technology for the drone, and image recognition technology to identify the condition of plant structures and check for signs of fatigue and deterioration. The process ends the need for people to carry out perilous inspections in dangerous places, and Toshiba and ESS are currently refining the technology to application level through verification testing in Japan.
Many of Japan’s plants and facilities were built during the perio..

Autonomous drone cameras have been trialed for several years to detect signs of life in disaster zones.

As long as the upper torso of a human body is visible, the cameras can pick up the tiny movements in the chest cavity that indicate a heartbeat and breathing rate.

Using new technology, researchers have discovered a computer vision system capable of spotting survivors in disaster zones from a distance of 4 to 8 metres.

Autonomous drone cameras have been trialled for several years to detect signs of life in disaster zones. Now, in a world-first study, researchers from Adelaide and Iraq have taken this a step further.
