Drones

Essentially, a drone is a flying robot. They may be remotely controlled or can fly autonomously through software-controlled flight plans. Drones are now used in a wide range of civilian roles ranging from search and rescue, surveillance, traffic monitoring, weather monitoring and firefighting to personal drones and business drone-based photography, as well as videography, agriculture and even delivery services.
