Eventually, the policies may be deployed on commercially available drones to boost their agility and improve their ability to tackle complex real-world missions. For instance, they could allow drones to move through gaps in rubble and reach survivors after natural disasters, inspect secluded areas or pipelines in industrial sites, and explore other confined spaces such as partially collapsed mines, tunnels and ventilation shafts.

hello
interesting subject (even if the most interesting one is missing)
yesterday evening after having gone through a hundred pages of repository (from dji development)
I came across a subject of controlling the piloting of a DJI drone directed by AI, which greatly opens up the field of possibilities from all points of view.
if she is capable of piloting she must also be capable of managing all equipment maintenance in real time (as any pilot would do in their cockpit)
No?
or it’s just a show off and she’s definitely artificially intelligent
Not interested, unless it’s a Lito 1 update…
I think the aim here is to provide the drone with sufficient autonomy, based on what it understands of the surroundings and possible conflict with other traffic in it’s immediate airspace, for the human pilot to become just a general provider of instructions to it, sort of ‘ok, go from where you are now to point x which I’ve just marked on my screen for you (x marks the spot, here’s the altitude I want) by the most direct path you can work out for yourself’. Or via point y, and I can either tell you which way I want you to point the lens and alter that instruction on the fly without interfering with your autonomous navigation, or I can interrupt and fly you myself at any point, and/or give you a new destination, and or simply return to manual flying within VLOS. The drone has to have the ability to refuse to do stuff that is clearly not safe or beyond it’s abilities (I’m sorry, Dave, I can’t do that…)
A drone that can make autonomous decisions safely opens up possibilities. As a battlefield weapon (which is where I suspect this tech is coming from), as a first-response SAR tool, a surveillance/law enforcement device, as a space exploration mecthod (drone doesn’t need breathable atmosphere, and can be set up to deal with different gravity/atmospheric pressure, chemistry, radiation shielding), and as a hobby drone.
This would, I imagine, not simply allow flying BVLOS, it would remove the need to have any sort of visual connection between the pilot and the drone of any sort at all’''1Why, if this sort of tech is to become possible, could I not hire a drone in Rio de Janiero, tell it to fly up and around the Corcovado, operate the camera from home, and have the SD sent to me!
