Drones Get Equipped With A.I.

Drones have taken up a bigger space in our skies lately. Easy to operate than any other aerial vehicle, drones are used in so many areas, from delivery of goods to surveillance. By incorporating drone technology with artificial intelligence, drones can also be controlled by computers. Although such a technology is still in its infancy, it will transform the future of drones dramatically.

Assigning each drone with an a.i. gives them a sense of autonomy, allowing them to decide what to do depending on changing circumstances. A drone equipped with advanced CPUs can calculate the possible whereabouts of disaster survivors and help authorities locate them. Drones can survey and map areas struck by disasters, accelerating the search and rescue efforts.

Drones can also navigate through stern environments where humans cannot get there safely. Caverns, cliffs, and summits can all be explored by drones without putting human life in danger. They can pinpoint congested streets or roads, reporting spots that cause traffic jams.

The fight against crime can also be another area to make use of drones. We would not need any choppers to follow criminals who run off by vehicle. The chase vehicle can be easily tracked by drones, which can calculate possible routes that the runaway vehicle could divert to. This would greatly ease law enforcement's efforts to fight crime.

The future of drones is very bright. The application of drones has become so widespread that its implications will affect everyone for the better. Life will be a lot easier, and the world will be safer.

Fish Farming: Why we need it

 

Growing concerns over the sustainability of marine life bring about questions on raising fish in artificially created habitats both inland and at sea. It has been a promising business model where people raise fish for consumption purposes, just like a farm raises poutlry for meat. Can such a practice put fish on the tables of ordinary households?

Yes, farming fish has had a positive impact on the fish market, creating a substitute for the fish raised in the seas naturally. A bass farmed by humans is sold cheaper than its sea-born counterpart. A greater portion of the population can now have access to fish products, which possess vital proteins essential to a healthy body.

However, like any endeavor, these practices have some shady sides to them. Greed can be a big factor, such that in order to reduce costs, the owners can overcrowd the pools, creating constant turmoil within the pool. Moreover, the quality of fish feed is often questionable. The availability of additives that can accelerate the maturity process can be tempting.

The fish is a very important source of protein, which should be consumed for at least a week by all. Yet, both pollution and excessive hunting put a hold on the population growth of freshwater fish. Hence, we have been forced to farm our fish to make up for the forgone supply. In this respect, farming fish on the shores and inland pools benefits us in that more of us can now afford to buy fish and fish products. On a side note, though, fish farming is not always a clean practice, which should be monitored closely by the authorities.
