Drones, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), are aircraft that operate without a human pilot aboard. They can be controlled remotely by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers.
There are various types of drones, including fixed-wing drones, rotary-wing drones (like quadcopters), single-rotor helicopters, and hybrid VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) drones. Each type has its unique capabilities and use cases.
Drones are used in diverse fields such as aerial photography, agriculture, search and rescue operations, surveillance, filmmaking, package delivery, and even recreational purposes like racing and drone sports.
The history of drones traces back to the early 20th century, with significant advancements made during military conflicts. Today, drones have evolved from military tools to widely accessible consumer products with innovative features and technologies.
As the popularity of drones has increased, so have concerns regarding safety, privacy, and regulations. Many countries have implemented laws to govern the use of drones, including restrictions on flight altitudes, no-fly zones, and registration requirements for drone operators.
