Abstract

A drone, also known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. Drones are robots typically remotely controlled by a pilot and with the ability to fly or move. It seems that drones are breaking into every industry. Drones can serve as a platform on different applications and business models. In many business activities, drones can replace traditional methods of operation. This paper introduces readers to drone and their various applications in the business world.
