Descrição
Resumo:Unmanned vehicles are increasingly present in the daily of companies and people, because this kind of vehicle is performing ever more tasks that were previously only executed by human beings. However, to better understand the potential of unmanned vehicles, it is important to know their types, features, applications, limitations and challenges, thus with this knowledge it is possible to comprehend the possibilities of use of these vehicles in several applications. In this context, the first step of the present research consists in studying the different kinds of unmanned vehicles, i.e., ground, surface and underwater, aerial, and hybrid. During the second step of the research, a deepening study was accomplished, with focus on user interfaces of unmanned aerial vehicles. These two initial reviews of the domain allowed the identification of challenges and opportunities to the development of new applications for this context. Based on the acquired knowledge from these studies, then, an automated goods delivery system was developed for universities’ campuses, called PostDrone University, and an unmanned vehicle to make the deliveries, called PostDrone University UAV K-263, was also developed. The system has an easy use UI, which does not require the user to have knowledge about specific domains, as aviation or aircraft control, for the operation of the system. Lastly, several test were accomplished aiming to validate the solution proposed in the present research and identify its limitations
