"As with any Olympics, there is a certain expectation of greatness when it comes to the opening ceremony. The Pyeongchang Winter Olympics certainly did not let viewers down with their curtain unveiling. They actually created a record-setting never before witnessed site involving drones.
- It isn’t possible to deny that drones continue to increase in popularity as the years move forward. They’re being used for a variety of purposes that no longer include just recreational. With incredible cameras equipped on many of them, they are able to film and capture pictures that would have never been imaginable in the past.
- Intel, which is a major computer manufacturer and sponsor of the Olympics, went all out with the opening show this year. They used a coordinated swarm of 1218 Intel Shooting Star drones to create something that has never been seen before.
- While coordinating these drones, Intel also managed to capture a Guiness World Record for “the most aerial unmanned vehicles simultaneously.” Each of the drones involved in this event were a foot long and weighed approximately 8 ounces. These drones were constructed of plastic and styrofoam and lit up the skies in pre-designed animation.

Drone Journalism Lab operations manual
One of the more interesting ways drones are impacting everyday life is in journalism, especially amateur investigative journalism, bringing an eye to the sky to document what's going on in the world around us.
The Drone Journalism Lab at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln
http://www.dronejournalismlab.org
exists to educate journalists about how drones can be used legally and ethically as a part of the journalistic process. To further that goal, the project has open sourced its operations manual, available on GitHub
https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/or as a PDF, under a Creative Commons license to bring best practices to any news organization hoping to use a drone to further its reporting capabilities.

"Editor's note: This article was originally published in December 2016 and has been updated to include additional information.
Over the past few years, interest in civilian, military, and commercial drones has grown rapidly, which has also driven the maker community's interest in open source drone projects.
- The list of unmanned aerial devices (UAVs) that fit the moniker of drone seems to be constantly expanding. These days, the term seems to encompass everything from what is essentially a cheap, multi-bladed toy helicopter, all the way up to custom-built soaring machines with incredibly adept artificial intelligence capabilities.
- The drone-building community has created many software and hardware projects under open licenses that allow you to build, repair, customize, and experiment with your own drone, or to supplement the use of drones in some other way.
Let's take a look at some of those projects.
Paparazzi UAV
Paparazzi UAV is a GPLv2 licensed project that combines both the software and hardware needed to build and fly an open source vehicle under open licenses. Its primary focus is autonomous flight, and it's designed to be portable to allow operators to easily take their devices into the field and program their flights across a series of waypoints.....
ArduPilot
ArduPilot claims it's "the most advanced, full-featured, and reliable open source autopilot software available." That's probably not blowing smoke: it's installed in more than 1 million drones and other UAVs, including airplanes, helicopters, boats, and submarines, and it has a large number of contributors working on the project.....
Dronecode
The Dronecode project is a Linux Foundation-sponsored project working to build a common open source platform for UAV development....
LibrePilot
The LibrePilot software suite is designed to control multi-copters and other radio-controlled drones.
Flone
Flone is a cool project that basically turns a smartphone into a drone....
OpenDroneMap
This software takes this aerial imagery and helps you process it into point clouds, digital surface and elevation models, or just orthorectify the imagery (in essence, line up the imagery to a known coordinate system for further analysis)....

"For many years the drone market was slow to take off. It wasn’t until 2015 that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) granted hundreds of exemptions for companies to operate drones in the U.S. airspace. This year (2017 ) the drone industry saw significant growth. Due to the current administration’s support for drone integration and adding of FAA regulations, UAS technology innovations have surged—and 2018 doesn’t appear to be slowing down. Check out these five predictions on the future of the commercial drone industry.
1. Multiple Regulatory Environments Working Together
The upcoming year will show us how multiple regulatory environments can work together to support drones entering the National Airspace System (NAS)....
2. Modernizing the Air Traffic System
Throughout 2018 several federal agencies will address integrating unmanned aircraft into the airspaces where they are most needed. For instance, this October, the White House and the FAA launched an integrated pilot program to allow for continued research for beyond visual line of sight and to facilitate the integration of UAS into the U.S. airspace.....
3. Commercial Drone Industry Soars
Although a regulatory framework is still under development, next year will see tremendous growth for commercial drone applications as commercial industries pursue aerial data to provide insight into profitable inspection and survey data collection....
4. Drones Respond to Disasters
The drone response to recent natural disasters is encouraging an easing of regulations for drone use in search and rescue missions and other humanitarian efforts....
5. Sense and Avoid Drone Technologies Emerge
Stemming from continued UAS integration efforts, a significant number of sense and avoid applications will emerge in the coming year to ensure UAS flight safety. Sense and avoid technologies will enable drone operators and drones themselves to identify obstacles and maneuver fast-flying UAS safely and efficiently...."

Four Commercial Drone Trends to Watch in 2018
Považuji za velmi podnětnou úvahu, zasazující problematiku dron-trhu do šírších souvislostí informačního managementu a umělé inteligence.
The Drone Analyst: Four Commercial Drone Trends to Watch in 2018
Posted By: Colin Snowon: February 08, 2018 - DRONELIFE
Guest post by leading drone industry analyst Colin Snow of Skylogic Research.
"...this post looks forward, offering our specific predictions for 2018, including investments, technology improvements, ecosystem partnerships, and software innovations."
(Listen to companion Drone Radio Show podcast here for our complete assessment:
http://droneradioshow.com/5-trends-defined-commercial-drone-industry-2017-predictions-2018-colin-snow-skylogic-research/ ).
Four Commercial Drone Trends
- Investment and testing will continue in earnest on Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) and beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations.
- You’ll see more news on improved sensors, hardware integration, networking, and processing.
- Look for more partnerships, software, and innovations coming from the DJI Enterprise ecosystem.
- Software will dominate advancements.
- We also expect to see more aerial imaging and mapping software firms announce artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Right now, most of this is cloud-based machine learning (aka deep learning and predictive analytics) where data sets are trained by specialized teams. You may see some edge-based AI announcements for image recognition / machine vision, but be cautious when you do. We think it’s still early in the technology development cycle and AI is at peak hype.
- We think the big news for 2018 will be the integration of drone data and workflow into asset management systems. Capabilities include documentation, tracking, and GIS data integration."
"As I speak to clients, I always like to remind them of two things about the commercial drone market. First, it’s not a drone market, it’s a data and information market. The drone is just a data capture device. Second, drones are aircraft not consumer products and as such their operations are regulated by aviation authorities."

"...this post looks forward, offering our specific predictions for 2018, including investments, technology improvements, ecosystem partnerships, and software innovations."
(Listen to companion Drone Radio Show podcast here for our complete assessment:
http://droneradioshow.com/5-trends-defined-commercial-drone-industry-2017-predictions-2018-colin-snow-skylogic-research/ ).
Four Commercial Drone Trends
- Investment and testing will continue in earnest on Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM) and beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations.
- You’ll see more news on improved sensors, hardware integration, networking, and processing.
- Look for more partnerships, software, and innovations coming from the DJI Enterprise ecosystem.
- Software will dominate advancements.
- We also expect to see more aerial imaging and mapping software firms announce artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Right now, most of this is cloud-based machine learning (aka deep learning and predictive analytics) where data sets are trained by specialized teams. You may see some edge-based AI announcements for image recognition / machine vision, but be cautious when you do. We think it’s still early in the technology development cycle and AI is at peak hype.
- We think the big news for 2018 will be the integration of drone data and workflow into asset management systems. Capabilities include documentation, tracking, and GIS data integration."

Systém na přesné měření radiace pomocí dronu
Deník PRÁVO 9. 2. 2018: "Systém na přesné měření radiace pomocí dronu představili ve čtvrtek v Třebíči experti ze společnosti NUVIA."
Problematika aplikace dronů pomalu, ale jistě, proniká i na stránky denního styku. PRÁVO se věnuje aplikaci dronu, kterou česká firma vyvinula jako první na světě.
Cituji vybrané části článku:"Bezpečný způsob identifikace zdroje radioaktivního záření se spolehlivými údaji může být pomocníkem vojáků, záchranářů, výzkumníků, ale i soukromých firem. Unikátní technologie, monitorovací systém Drones-G, vznikal pět let.
" ...výhodou modulárního systému je i flexibilita - dá se sestavit podle potřeb konkrétního měření....
Dron BRUS (bezpilotní rotorový univerzální systém) vyvinul státní podnik Vojenský technický ústav (VTÚ). který na komplexu s firmou NUVIA spolupracoval.
Podle ředitele VTÚ Jiřího Protivy je přístroj schopen unést až osm kilogramů a létat je schopen 40 minut do vzdálenosti několika kilometrů. Oproti vrtulníku létá v nižších výškách a obsluha není vystavena riziku...."
"...Třebíčští vývojáři vyvinuli technologii, která dokáže pomocí speciálních algoritmů radiaci na povrchu zemč spočítat. Dokáže také za letu rozpoznat jednotlivé typy radionuklidů, což, je důležité pro rychlé rozhodování zásahového týmu. Naměřená data se operátorovi zobrazují on-li-ne na monitoru počítače a díky použití GPS se jednoduše přenesou do mapového podkladu."
Unikátní systém ... může být využit při sanaci lokalit po těžbě uranové rudy, v teritoriích, kde v minulosti operovaly vojenské jednotky, či na místech s výskytem historického odpadu, u nějž je riziko kontaminace. Mohou také pomoci odhalit nelegální transport radioaktivního nebo jaderného materiálu.
Třebíčská NUVIA .... v oblasti monitorovacích systémů firma rozvíjí slibnou spolupráci i s Fakultou elektrotechniky a komunikačních technologií VUT v Brně. Společně s tamními vědci pracují na vývoji radiačního detekčního systému, který bude součástí záchranářského robota Morpheus.

100+1: Dron do každé rodiny
Jak jsem již uvedl v jedné z minulých zpráv, potěšilo mne, že se tématice dronů hodlá věnovat časopis "100+1 Zahraniční zajímavost". Tak se i stalo a tak vám mohu citovat několik částí textu a odkázat na kopii fotografie nejznámějšího dronu Phantom 4.
Cituji vybrané části textu:
- Někdejší armádní technologie je dnes díky levnější výrobě i materiálům dostupná běžným smrtelníkům. Místo útočení na cíle máme bezpilotní letouny pro radost nebo je zaměstnáváme třeba postřikem polí a pod.
- První pokusy s technologií bezpilotních letounů se odehrály na začátku 20. století a ve stejné době se experimentovalo se čtyřvrtulovými konstrukcemi vrtulníků....
- Zatímco vojenské drony představují často malá letadla, civilní mívají podobu kvadrokoptéry - vrtulníku se čtyřmi vrtulemi.....
- Na rozdíl od letadla dokáže kvadrokoptéra setrvávat ve vzduchu na místě. Při létání se sice nemůže opřít o vztlak křídel, a jelikož neustále bojuje s gravitací, spotřebuje víc energie. Na druhou stranu má lépe rozloženou hmotnost a na rozdíl od malých vrtulníků se nezačne otáčet kolem své osy. Čtyři a více vrtulí pak strojům umožňuje přesněji manévrovat ve všech směrech...
- Využití kvadrokoptér se zdá nekonečné: Vedle amatérů, kteří s nimi vyrážejí k nebi jen tak pro radost, je používají fotografové, filmaři, vědci i záchranáři či přepravní služby ... S drony se pořádají rovněž závody....
- Velkou část z nich vyrobí čínská firma Dá-Jiáng Innovations (DJI), největší producent bezpilotních letounů pro civilní využití, jež působí na trhu už dvanáct let.
- Z „civilních“ modelů je pak nejznámější Phantom, který poprvé vzlétl v roce 2013... Nejnovější verze dokážou létat půl hodiny v kuse a inovace tím zdaleka nekončí. Nově se také umějí vyhnout překážkám hned v pěti směrech - narazit mohou pouze při stoupání. Pro komunikaci s ovladačem se navíc používá frekvence 5,8 GHz, a jeho maximální dosah tak činí 7 km....
- V Česku se můžete vydat jen tak daleko, jak sami vidíte. Maximální povolená výška letu činí 300 m, v případě nízké oblačnosti méně. Pokud je dron těžší, potřebujete k jeho provozu letecké zkoušky.
Na obrázku je fotka dronu Phantom 4, obsahující komentář k jednotlivým částem dronu, tak jak ji uvádí na závěr svého článku časopis "100+1 Zahraniční zajímavost".

Drohnen Racing – der Traum jedes Gamers
Ein immer beliebter werdender Sport ist FPV Racing: Dohnen Racing ist ein anderer Begriff dafür und beschreibt Piloten die per First Person View ihre Drohnen durch einen Parcour steuern. Dabei treten sie gegeneinander an, ähnlich den heutigen Autorennen.

"While much has been written about the impact of drones and artificial intelligence in property/casualty insurance over the last few years, the first real test of these emerging technologies didn’t occur until the 2017 hurricane season.
- After Hurricane Irma battered Florida, reinsurers and insurers of all sizes (small, midsize and top 10) looked to facilitate their claims processing through the use of drones and artificial intelligence.
- One of the most critical factors in post-catastrophe claims processing is capturing and documenting the situation on the ground. Traditionally, this is done using on-the-ground claims adjusters and is supplemented by imagery captured from airplanes or satellites.
- One of the benefits of drones is that they can quickly and safely capture many high-resolution photos after catastrophes. Unlike satellites or airplanes, drones can fly a few feet away from the surface of a home, apartment building, high-rise or even stadium to document the damage to the top and sides of these structures......"
“While the FAA had flight restrictions in place to ensure the safety of manned aircraft engaged in disaster relief operations, the System Operations Support Center of the FAA was operating in full force to provide authorizations for unmanned aircraft operations within restricted areas,” says Armin Monajemi, chief pilot and solutions engineer at Betterview. “The FAA’s staff was very responsive and helpful in providing these authorizations. In most cases, we had the authorization letter back in the same day......”
- For many of our customers, Hurricane Irma was the first time drones were used for catastrophe response...."
- Hurricane Irma demonstrated the value of drones in catastrophe response, as well as showcased how the insurance industry is willing to embrace the latest technology in order to benefit their clients....".

"CNN was been awarded a waiver under the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Part 107 to operate unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) safely over people in real-world operating conditions.
- According to press release from law firm Hogan Lovells, which helped the major news channel secure the approval, the waiver allows CNN to fly the Vantage Robotics Snap drone over non-participating members of the public up to an altitude of 150 feet above ground level. There are no restrictions based on population density – which will, for the first time ever, enable wide-ranging flights in urban and suburban environments, says the law firm.
- “This waiver signifies a critical step forward not only for CNN’s UAS operations but also the commercial UAS industry at large,” says David Vigilante, senior vice president for legal at CNN, in a company blog.
- According to CNN, the Snap UAS is a “frangible, 1.37-pound aircraft with enclosed rotors that is made of deformable material.”
- “Vantage created the Snap for the purpose of safely capturing aerial video over people,” comments Tobin Fisher, CEO of Vantage Robotics. “We are pleased that Vantage was able to work with CNN to present and establish the safety case for the Snap to the FAA.”
- This summer, CNN, which has its own Aerial Imagery and Reporting unit, CNN AIR, received a Part 107 waiver for closed-set UAS operations, allowing drone flights over people for motion picture and television filming in a controlled environment. Last year, CNN also secured a waiver to operate a Fotokite Pro – a small, tethered drone – over areas with unsheltered people who are not directly participating in the UAS operation.
- As of today, the FAA has issued 1,317 Part 107 waivers, but only seven of them (or .005%) allow drone operations over people, notes Hogan Lovells. Though the odds of filing a successful waiver application for operations over people may seem daunting, CNN’s new waiver could now open the door to additional approvals, the law firm points out.....".

"CNN was been awarded a waiver under the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Part 107 to operate unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) safely over people in real-world operating conditions.
- According to press release from law firm Hogan Lovells, which helped the major news channel secure the approval, the waiver allows CNN to fly the Vantage Robotics Snap drone over non-participating members of the public up to an altitude of 150 feet above ground level. There are no restrictions based on population density – which will, for the first time ever, enable wide-ranging flights in urban and suburban environments, says the law firm.

"Společnost DJI je největším výrobcem dronů na světě a zároveň průkopníkem kompaktních modelů, které si lidé mohou brát s sebou kamkoliv na cesty. První model se skládací konstrukcí byl představen už před dvěma roky, řeč je o dronu Mavic Pro.
- Loni pak výrobce nasadil laťku ještě výš, kdy představil do té doby nejkompaktnější verzi zvanou Spark. Ta sice neměla skládací konstrukci, ale lákala na jiné vychytávky – například na ovládání pomocí gest.
- Společnost DJI začne tento měsíc prodávat nový typ dronu. Model Mavic Air má být spojením toho nejlepšího ze dvou modelů, které podnik představil již dříve. Jde o kompaktní bezpilotní letoun, který se ve složeném stavu snadno vejde do kapsy a navíc je možné jej ovládat pomocí gest.
Pokročilé technologie, kompaktní rozměry
- Novinka zvaná Mavic Air kombinuje technologie obou zmiňovaných modelů. Ve srovnání se starším modelem Mavic Pro se navíc podařilo rozměry ještě více zmenšit. Ve složeném stavu má tak letošní provedení 144 x 78 x 61 mm. Předchůdce se slůvkem Pro v názvu měl 198 x 83 x 83 mm.....
Ovládání pomocí gest
- I přes kompaktní rozměry se podařilo do útrob bezpilotního letounu vtěsnat sofistikovanou elektroniku. .....
- Přepracován byl u novinky zcela systém ovládání, tedy ve srovnání s modelem Mavic Pro. Kromě speciálního ovladače a chytrého telefonu tak dron dokáže nově reagovat i na gesta. Potřebujete, aby letěl kousek doleva? Stačí na bezpilotní letoun správně zamávat.
- Bezdotykové ovládání pomocí gest dává smysl v případě, kdy chcete například pořídit zajímavou momentku sebe sama. Pochopitelně tak bude k dispozici pouze v některých letových režimech......
Mavic Air se začne prodávat za cenu těsně pod hranicí 22 tisíc korun.

Sgt. Hoster said they have linked up with Dedrone and Aerial Armor to catch drones flying over the area.
"A device, a box with antennas, and when those drones pop up, that detects their usage in the area, and lets the operator know, and then we send out messages to folks in the area to look for it and try to find the operator," said Sgt. Hoster.
The data caught by the detector is collected and analyzed by a software. The analysis of the information is picked up automatically, and then triggers alarms to alert the security staff of an unauthorized drone.
Sgt. Hoster says There are reasons for banning drones from flying over an event like the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
"Drones at an event like this could hurt or injure people, if it were to crash or cause panic to a large crowd," said Sgt Hoster.

"Roughly 45 minutes from the Las Vegas strip, amid the sprawling sands and sparse flora of the desert, lies the Aerodrome, the premier location for drone enthusiasts to come and learn how to fly. It’s a place where drone pilots can fly without fear of breaking regulations. For years now, when CES rolls around, drone crowds descend on the aerodrome for the Drone Rodeo, an event where manufacturers can show off the latest in drone technology, where hobbyists can learn all about the next generation of drones, and perhaps most impressively, where drone racers flaunt their skills in dazzling displays of drone maneuvering.
- “We’re super excited to be out here again,” Skyfire Consulting CEO Ben Kroll told Digital Trends. “This year we’ve got a lot of stuff going on. We’ve got drone racing, we’ve got MultiGP, which is an international organization that’s done drone races all over the place. And then we’ve got several different vendors that are out here, showing off new technology.”
- That new technology should excite maverick drone racers who feel the need for speed. This year, according to Kroll, “We’ve got a couple of folks that are proclaiming to have the fastest production racing drone in the world right now.”
- To the uninitiated, drone racing may not sound all that impressive, but compared to ordinary drone flying, it’s another world entirely. Racing drones can exceed speeds of 100mph and require constant, precise control to avoid crashing. Making things even more challenging, racers wear headsets during the race, seeing the world through their drone’s camera lenses.
