In today's context Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) play an important role in varied missions such as military attacks, border surveillance, mapping, surveying, weather determination and regional law enforcements. This technology has grown at a rapid pace and production companies are emerging across the globe.
UAVs have developed from radio controlled model airplanes to urbane aircraft that today play a unique role in many public missions and also have the potential to do so in civilian situations.
According to industry estimates, UAV operations will increase manifold in a variety of key military and civil areas.
