IEEE Spectrum, is the world’s largest professional organisation devoted to engineering and the applied sciences. It contains peer-reviewed feature articles pertaining to technology and science trends affecting business and society. This spectrum was conducted to enlighten the young minds and some skillful knowledge out of it. The speaker Mr.Senthamizhselvan. S spoke on the “ Drones can fly better than you can ”. The speaker enlightened us with the idea that “drones, especially quadcopters, were just coming out, but they were all remote controlled or they were actually using GPS. And so then we said, “What about flying drones autonomously, but with the onboard cameras?” And this had never been done until then. But what fascinates me about drones is the fact that, actually, they can overcome obstacles on the ground very quickly, and especially, this can be very useful for many applications that matter to us all today, like, first of all, search and rescue, but also other things like inspection of difficult infrastructures like bridges, power [inaudible] oil platforms, and so on.” The participants had an amazing experience in the meet and enjoyed the entire session.
