The time when a camera and a roll of film were all you needed to create beautiful photos are long gone. Now, photographers have a vastly wider variety of instruments from which to choose, such as DSLR cameras, mirrorless cameras, smartphones, and even the latest addition to the lineup: the camera drone. Using our flying […]
The U.S. National Guard uses artificial intelligence (AI) equipped drones to track wildfires. Drones were first used as early as 2013, by the National Guard, to track wildfires after California Air National Guardsmen were assigned as the 163rd Reconnaissance Wing, which operated the MQ-1 Predator drone. The new AI-backed drones are able to map out […]
Ecologists are looking to Australian-made drone technology to help in tracking endangered animals. The autonomous drones can reach areas easily and efficiently by marking the location of the animals without having to follow them. For more than 20 years, Dr. Debbie Saunders has been focusing her studies on endangered animals as she has specifically studied […]
NEW YORK (WABC) reported that a man with a drone is catching the attention of our “Be Kind” campaign, after he used that technology to make a very special discovery — finding a missing golden retriever named, “Meadow” in upstate New York.

While we may have learned about our planet’s underwater habitats through the use of satellites, sensors and divers, such technologies merely scratch the surface of the ocean. Thankfully, over the last few decades, engineers have developed submersibles technology that are capable of meeting some of the challenges of the deep sea. Aerial drones have infiltrated […]
Drones with its sensor data driven technology, have a wide range of conservation and environmental protection applications for wildlife conservation. From glacial feature modeling and erosion monitoring to animal counting and species identification. As drones are becoming more common across the skies, whether it is for recreation, or business, or conservation projects, etc., scientists are […]
Drones are not only used to protect our environment and saving our planet, but they have saved many lives as they have become famous for their dangerous missions. These missions include measuring radioactivity in nuclear disaster zones, flying military missions in war zones, collecting biological samples from wild animals, detecting and deterring illegal animal poaching, […]
