What Artificial Intelligence Is Bringing to the Commercial Drone Industry - Unmanned Aerial

Drones may be a relatively new technology, but artificial intelligence (AI) is already taking the controls. Autonomous drones are beginning to see use in jobs that require smooth, consistent flying, such as deliveries, and NASA and Google have even teamed up to experiment with how autonomous drones compare to human pilots when racing against each other. They discovered that even though humans won the race in the end, they needed to spend more time practicing before they were able to outspeed the autonomous drones. AI is becoming a force to be reckoned with in the drone industry. Right now, though, AI has an even more important task than providing autonomous flight: processing data collected in the field and turning it into actionable insights.
