A Vision for Using Energy-Aware Software in Drones

Posted September 1, 2016 | Leadership |

Our vision strives for a software-driven approach that improves drones' energy consumption by establishing practices, tools, and metrics for developing and evaluating energy performance at the system level. With this knowledge, we can outline ways to utilize software solutions to measure and optimize drones' energy consumption and critically improve their flight autonomy.
