Whether you like them or not, drones are here to stay. In fact, you might be surprised to know just how much they’ve infiltrated our lives in ways we haven’t really thought about: from delivering packages and building houses to fighting crime and even saving lives. In this post, I’ll detail the latest drone developments sure to wow your friends at your next party or make you think twice about what’s possible when you have a drone—or run into one in the skies above!
Flying a drone will one day be as common as driving a car.
Drones have become a popular topic of discussion, and for good reason. As the technology advances, there are more and more ways to put drones in our hands. In fact, one day you might be able to use a drone as easily as you use your car.
The fact that they’re so accessible makes them appealing to many people who wouldn’t otherwise get involved with flying machines. If you can operate a smartphone or flip video camera, chances are good that you’ll also feel confident operating a drone. And because there’s almost no learning curve for beginners—just some basic flight controls and radio signals—you can get started right away!
You can now use a drone to build houses.
If you’re looking to build a house, your best bet is to turn to the experts: drones.
In addition to the fact that they can transport water, food and people, they’re also capable of carrying materials needed for building purposes—something that would be very useful in remote areas where there are few roads and transportation options.
A team from Rice University has developed a robotic drone capable of flying autonomously into disaster zones with supplies such as water and bandages. The prototype was tested out in Nepal following an earthquake there earlier this year.
Scientists are starting to use them to stop poachers.
Scientists are using drones to help protect endangered species and wildlife reserves.
In some cases, scientists have used the footage captured by drones to capture poachers in the act (and arrest them).
Drones can also help keep track of animals that have been tagged with GPS devices.
New drone laws are being enforced in the U.S. and U.K.
In the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulates drone use. The FAA has issued rules that include a requirement for drone pilots to register their aircraft with the government. In addition, federal law prohibits flying drones above 400 feet or within five miles of an airport without permission from air traffic control towers.
The U.K.’s Civil Aviation Authority requires that all pilots must pass an exam and complete a knowledge test to fly a drone commercially or recreationally in controlled airspace; operators must also complete training programs outlining how to safely fly drones over people at night and how to safely operate them near other aircrafts, including helicopters and planes piloted by military personnel; operators must be at least 16 years old
Drones are becoming a lot more sophisticated these days.
Drones are getting more intelligent and more useful. They’re able to fly longer and further, carry more payload, and even operate autonomously. Drones are also becoming cheaper and easier for companies to use in their everyday businesses.
As drones become increasingly sophisticated, we can expect them to do things like navigate through dangerous conditions or even navigate themselves around obstacles without the help of human pilots. Soon enough you’ll be able to buy a drone that does all the hard work for you!
The user base for drones is growing at an incredible rate across the globe.
If you’re reading this article, chances are you already know that drones are becoming more affordable and easier to use. But did you know that the user base for drones is growing at an incredible rate across the globe? In 2016 alone, 1 million new drone pilots were created in China alone. As the technology improves and becomes more accessible, we can expect this trend to continue—and that’s great news!
Drones are going to have a big impact on everyone’s life, very soon
If you’re thinking of buying a drone, or just have an interest in the technology, it’s worth taking a look at what drones can do. We’ve already seen how they can be used for fun and entertainment purposes such as photography and videography; these are things that people have been doing with conventional cameras for decades. However, drones are going to change everything!
Drones are going to change the world in ways that we can barely imagine right now. They will become so commonplace that many people won’t realise they use them often (for example: deliveries). But they will also be used in ways we never thought possible—such as agriculture monitoring—and have impact across industries like film making & education.
Conclusion
It is clear that the drone trend is here to stay. What once seemed like science fiction has now become an everyday reality. In years to come, companies will be using drone technology for a range of new and exciting applications – from delivering pizza to your doorstop, offering personal transport services like Uber but without human drivers, providing fast internet access anywhere in the world (including on moving vehicles such as trains) – there really are no limits when it comes to what can be done with this versatile piece of kit. So if you haven’t already got yourself one of these futuristic flying machines then I suggest doing so right away because it won’t be long before they’re commonplace!
