According to the US Huffington Post website reported on February 28, experts are very good at predicting the growth of single technology (such as 3d printing), but experts are also trying to predict artificial intelligence, robots , virtual reality, drones. The double development and combined growth of technologies such as computers are unpredictable in the future. This year, I will delve into what I call the "Convergence Catalyzers" section.
In the discussion, I will also invite industry experts in each of the involved areas to let them talk about the five recent breakthroughs (2012-2015) and the five major breakthroughs (2016-2018) to determine the mode of discussion.
Virtual reality - background
The expert in predicting drone technology this year is Chris Anderson.
Chris is the founder and CEO of 3D Robotics (3DRobotics). He successfully developed the drone business and created a large community of drone enthusiasts called "DIY drones." Chris was the editor-in-chief of WIRED magazine. In short, he is very good. If you want to know about drones, Chris is a very suitable candidate.
Before you get to know the drone, familiarize yourself with some other backgrounds.
A drone is an aerial robot that can be operated remotely or automatically.
The cost of microelectromechanical systems, accelerators and gyroscopes has dropped 10 to 100 times, while inexpensive, efficient microcontrollers have reduced the cost of navigation control systems while ensuring the efficiency of the system.
As a result, today's drones have become popular, and companies such as DJI and 3DRobotics have revolutionized personal and corporate drones.
UAVs have been equipped with next-generation sensors and high-bandwidth communications, making them an effective data collection platform for use in the construction, agriculture, oil and gas, and security industries.
At the same time, Amazon and Google have announced the highly anticipated drone package delivery service.
Soon, the rapid development of technology, Battery and materials science will make another breakthrough in drone technology, making drones smarter, cheaper, more reliable, and more diverse in specifications (both small and large drones). And eventually it is everywhere.
Recent 5 major drone technology breakthroughs in 2013–2015
Here are the five breakthroughs of the 2012-2015 drone that Chris concluded.
1. UAVs enter the mainstream market for construction, oil and gas, and agriculture.
In recent years, drones have evolved from “government level†to “consumer level†to “commercial levelâ€.
At the consumer level, relative to tools, drones can only be considered toys. The video function and simple flight interface make the drone an interesting toy. But recently, these toys have quickly become tools and are now considered "air sensors."
“It looks like there are no drones. Now, people just connect the sensors to the cloud and put the sensors in the air, which is below the satellite but above the streetscape.â€
