Drones in the world of herding sheep

Herding of animals could be revolutionized with the use of drones. These devices have the ability to cover more ground, they could check on the condition of the animals in a much faster way. The use of drones in herding sheep has been applied in farms that are as big as 200 acres.

Drones are aiding police and firefighters

The application of drones with regards to this is in their use in active shooter or crime scenes, crime and accident scene analysis, general surveillance, crowd monitoring, bomb inspection. The use of drones in managing fires entails their use in evaluation of the fire and the determination of its size and source.

A notable drone that has been handy in the police system is the Aeryon Drone-Skyranger. As a matter of fact it is has enabled drug dealers to be captured in Central America and Canada.

Australia and the United Kingdom represent the countries which have adopted their use in the police department. They have found them to be effective compared to the helicopters, dogs and even the officers themselves. Drones have also been used to search for missing persons and in the managing of accidents scenes besides being used to eliminate rural crime, to discover hidden drug crops and in the survey of crime scenes before forensic officers enter.

Police have also used drones to assess crime scenes and terror attacks or in the identification of the number of people who are involved and where exactly in the situation. It is good to mention that North Dakota, a USA state was the first to come up with a non-lethal weaponized drone. This drone was armed with tasers, tear gas, air bags as well as other non-lethal weapons. The device was created by a pro-police lobbyist who intended it to be used in the near future in criminal investigation.

The Quick Evolution of Civilian Retail Drones

67.7 million Consumer drones are expected to be sold on an annual basis by 2021 across the globe. In 2015, about 6.4 million units were sold accounting for about $1.9 billion. In this year, 2016 the sales volume in the US alone is expected to be 953 million dollars and this is projected to be about $5 billion by 2021.

In 2015, Drone’s startups raised more than $450 million and France is inarguably the number one nation for drone investment. The reason for this is because France was fast in getting their act together with regards to regulations guiding the flying drones.

The White House has invested $35 million to the National Science Foundation to find out whether drones can be effectively used for inspections, disaster response as well as in the study of severe storms.
