A drone, also known as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), is an aircraft without a human pilot on board. Drones can be controlled remotely by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers. They come in various shapes and sizes, from small quadcopters to large fixed-wing aircraft.
Drones are equipped with sensors, GPS receivers, and stabilizing systems that allow them to fly and navigate through the air. They are powered by electric motors or engines and use propellers or rotors to generate lift. Some drones are also equipped with cameras or other payloads for photography, videography, mapping, or surveillance.
Drones have a wide range of applications across various industries. They are commonly used for aerial photography and videography, agriculture, construction, search and rescue operations, surveillance, and even recreational purposes such as racing and photography.
