DroNet 2021 - 7th ACM Workshop on Micro Aerial Vehicle Networks, Systems, and Applications
Co-located with ACM MobiSys 2021
Join the workshop through Gather.town space
Robot vehicle platforms, often called “drones”, offer
exciting new opportunities for mobile computing. While
traditional mobile systems respond to device mobility
(such as smartphones), drones allow computer systems to
actively control device location, allowing them to
interact with the physical world in new ways and with
new-found scale, efficiency, or precision. The startup
cost to experiment with and build real drone applications
has dropped dramatically in recent years, also thanks to
technological developments driven by the smartphone
industry and the rise of the “makers” and DIY movements.
Recent popular applications employing drones are
3D-mapping, search and rescue, surveillance, farmland and
construction monitoring, delivery of light-weight objects
and products, and video production.
DroNet welcomes contributions dealing with all facets of drones as mobile computing platforms, including system aspects, theoretical studies, algorithm and protocol design, as well as requirements, constraints, dependability, and regulations. We are particularly looking for papers reporting on experimental results of deployed systems, summaries of challenges or advancements, measurements, and innovative applications. The primary focus of this workshop will be on civilian applications of drones.
