Abstract

Bi-directional coordination between virtual models and the physical system has the potential to improve the operation of diverse social infrastructures (road, building, energy, factory, etc.) through real-time progress monitoring, information exchange, consistency maintenance tracking, and sustainable real-time documentation practices. Two huge industries (IoT and drone) are expected to be closely linked to each other in the future. IoT technology connects physical things in the real world and virtual things in the cyber environment through sensors and communication technologies. It is a future internet infrastructure technology that can provide various services such as data sharing, remote manipulation, object tracking, etc. through the linkage of objects, data, and people in the physical space and virtual space. The purpose of this chapter is to outline advantages and values of drone in comparison to the existing methods in the cyber-physical bridging intensity framework and to explore the realistic potentials between the autonomous driving versus flying.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The Doppler effect (or the Doppler shift) is the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source. The Doppler effect can be observed for any type of wave – water wave, sound wave, light wave, etc.

  2. 2.

    There is a company selling a remarkable drone that gives your smartphone wings, allowing you to deploy your iPhone or Android phone as an autonomous aerial camera. Not only does the smart phone have flight planning software so that anyone can fly the drone, the phone is on-board so that you have pictures taken directly with your phone. http://xcraft.io/phone-drone/

  3. 3.

    the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye.

  4. 4.

    Note that we use the expression D2X as shorthand for communication between drone and any other object.
