Introduction

• Drone known as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV),


is a versatile and innovative technology that has
gained significant popularity in recent years.

• Drones are essentially aircraft without a human pilot


on board.

• They come in various shapes, sizes, and


configurations, each suited for different applications
and industries.

Advantages and
disadvantages of drones
• However, like any technology, drones come with their own set of advantages and disadvantages. Here
are some of the key advantages and disadvantages of drones:

Advantages Disadvantages

• Drones can reach areas that are • Drones can equally be very dangerous if
otherwise inaccesible, witch makes they fall in the wrong hands, causing

How drones work
• Drones can be controlled manually or automatically:

➢ The flight control system
The flight control system can be considered as the servo of the drone.
It allows the control of the engine movements in space, thanks to it the drone can fly in a stable and secure manner.

➢ Pressure sensors
Pressure sensors are used to mesure the
altitude of the drone There for they play a
very important role for the acent and
decent.
➢ User interface
The user interface is the interface that
allows the user to command the drone
remotly with a controller.
Conclusion

Conclusion
• Drones are a versatile and effective tool for many applications, whether for
commercial or leisure activities. They are called upon to play an increasingly
important role in our daily lives. With the right regulations, their potential is
immense.
• However, it's important to note that drone regulations and restrictions variate
from country to country, and responsible drone operation requires compliance
with local laws and safety guidelines.
