Defining Levels of Aerial Autonomy
By Exyn TechnologiesAutonomy is the ability to think for yourself and be self-reliant—the capacity of self-governance or self-determination. There are different areas of autonomy, but the one we're most concerned with is personal autonomy -- the capacity to decide for oneself and pursue a course of action in one’s life.
This is ultimately what we're trying to achieve through our work in autonomous robotics: to create an artificial intelligence platform that can operate a robot in dangerous environments, complete multiple operations successfully, and take care of itself with minimal or no human interaction.
