About this tag
This tag covers discussions about airborne technology, including autonomous flying robots and drone swarms used for disaster rescue and emergency communication networks. Content focuses on research projects like the Swarming Micro Air Vehicle Network (SMAVNET) at EPFL, which studies swarm intelligence to create reliable and affordable wireless networks in disaster-hit areas. Topics include robotics, autonomous systems, and real-world applications of airborne tech for humanitarian purposes.
Establishing emergency communication networks in disaster-hit areas can often take time, hampering rescue teams in their efforts to save lives.
But a new system of autonomous flying robots being developed at the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) could make establishing...
