Development of Monitoring System Using Multiple Flying Robots Controlled via 3G Network

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a monitoring system using multiple flying robots controlled via a 3G network. We use AR. Drones as multiple flying robots. In order to display monitored data easily, we propose and implement a system as a web application. The proposed system works in a web browser with Google Maps and the USTREAM service. The user can check the position of each robot and can monitor video images from each flying robot within this application. By an evaluation experiment, our system can be used to control multiple flying robots and can be applied to information monitoring systems in case of emergency such as when disasters occur.
