Applications of drones in emerging economies: a case study of Malaysia

Drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for commercial and noncommercial uses – especially in fields of environment, surveillance, aerial photography, digital communications, search and rescue operations and military. Drones are in fact low cost aerial robots, tha...
