Abstract

Although there are rapid growth the drone’s applications such as surveillance systems and delivery systems in recent years, the problems of the accidents are also increasing conversely. Therefore, this paper discusses the collaborative object tracking methods by multi-drones. The proposed methods consist of the function of the motion tracking and the WiFi detections for each drone, and choose a proper level of emergent procedures in order to avoid the drone’s accident in various circumstances. Then, the prototype system of the proposed methods is introduced and discussed for the future works.
