The technology critical for developing autonomous drones is artificial intelligence (AI), alongside advanced sensor technologies and machine learning algorithms. AI enables drones to process data from various sensors, make autonomous decisions, and navigate complex environments without human intervention. This includes obstacle avoidance, path planning, and real-time situational awareness. The fusion of AI with other technologies enhances the capabilities of drones, allowing them to perform tasks like surveying, delivery, and reconnaissance efficiently and safely. As this technology evolves, we can expect even more sophisticated autonomous capabilities in drone applications.
