Abstract

Advances in electronics and sensor technology have widened the scopes of networked drones to include applications as diverse as surveillance, video recording, operations, entertainment/advertising, signal emission, transportation, and delivery. These applications and services require video recording for their operations. Drones come in various sizes. Large drones are used singly in missions while small ones are used in formations or swarms. The small drones are proving to be useful in civilian applications. These are effective with multiple drones. Consideration of small drones for the applications such as group flight, entertainment, and signal emission lead to deployment of networked drones. To develop group display applications, a real-time drone formation control for group display is proposed. Drones form group displays for an entertainment and displaying application. Simulation shows that drone formation can display messages effectively.
