Internet of Drones

Preface

In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has now emerged as a promising technology in a variety of applications. IoT can be used in flying drones to detect, track, and deliver goods and environment surveillance. IoT empowers drones as intelligent, thin devices by utilizing cognitive computing techniques. IoT makes drones a light-weighted flying device by minimizing the use of heavy electrical and mechanical components. A drone connected with IoT resulted in the “Internet of Drones (IoD).” Several potential applications have been developed by researchers in the design of drones using IoT in the literature. Specifically, IoD plays a vital role in the defence department, healthcare monitoring and emergency applications, delivery of ...
