<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"> </p><p class="Abstract">This article considers the development of a system to enable the in-flight-launch of one aerial system by another. The article discusses how an optimal release mechanism was developed taking into account the aerodynamics of one specific mothership and child Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Furthermore, it discusses the PID-based control concept that was introduced in order to autonomously stabilise the child UAV after being released from the mothership UAV. Finally, the article demonstrates how the concept of a mothership and child UAV combination could be taken advantage of in the context of a search and rescue operation.</p><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></p>

The Voice

<p class="Default">Unmanned Aerial Vehicles have gained well known attention in recent years for a numerous applications such as military, civilian surveillance operations as well as search and rescue missions. The UAVs are not controlled by professional pilots and users have less aviation experience. Therefore it seems to be purposeful to simplify the process of aircraft controlling. The objective is to design, fabricate and implement an unmanned aerial vehicle which is controlled by means of voice recognition. In the proposed system, voice commands are given to the quadcopter to control it autonomously. This system is navigated by the voice input. The control system responds to the voice input by voice recognition process and corresponding algorithms make the motors to run at specified speeds which controls the direction of the quadcopter.</p>

Aerial Vehicle

An Unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. In recent years, some UAVs are deployed for civil applications, such as policing, firefighting, air pollution monitoring, and aerial search and rescue, etc. Unmanned Aerial vehicle generally include fixed-wing and multi-rotor aircrafts. This research had developed a high endurance quadcopter for search and rescue mission. Target position correction software also was developed in this research. This program uses GPS coordinates embedded in the EXIF information of the aerial photos and more accurately calculates the target’s position. The target’s position error is less than ten meters in 75 meters altitude. Keywords: target position correction software, search and rescue, UAV, quadcopter, and GPS.

Flying Robots

An unmanned aerial vehicle, commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. Essentially, a drone is a flying robot that can be remotely controlled or fly autonomously through software-controlled flight plans in their embedded systems, Flying robots are increasingly adopted in search and rescue missions because of their capability to quickly collect and stream information from remote and dangerous areas. Their maneuverability and hovering capabilities allow them to navigate through complex structures, inspect damaged buildings, and even explore underground tunnels and caves. Since their size is fixed, maneuvering over the compact areas and tunnels of variable size becomes an issue. To overcome this issue, we propose a model of quadrotor design which has the capability to change its size. The arm length of the quadrotor is changed dynamically so that it can fly in areas of variable sizes that would be hard to reach with the quadrotor of fixed arm length. On the other hand, our model is cost-effective, since the arm of the drone is designed with PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). Using this model, drones will be able to move over compact areas and passages of variable sizes, thus aiding in better exploration during search and rescue operations.
