Tethered drones for persistent aerial surveillance applications
Tethered drones for persistent aerial surveillance applications
The current generation of free flying Drones, AKA Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) have two very important drawbacks; the first being an inability to cope with moderate wind speeds (>8 m/s), the second being a lack of endurance, with 20-30 min being typical for most small multi-rotor platforms (<7 kg). There are also a number of other issues which will also influence Drone (RPAS) use and acceptance amongst the general population, these being Safety, Security and Privacy.
