Abstract

Aerial robotics has reached significant maturity in the last few years. Thus, the number of new unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) , applications, and companies producing them has increased in a very important way. The number of publications and presentations in conferences has also experienced a large increase. Moreover, almost every day we can find articles, videos, and news in the general media related to drones.
