Automatic Target Acquisition and Discreet Close Surveillance Using Quad Copter with Raspberry Pi Support

The paper is about a making a micro modular drone (MMD) which can be used by armed forces to automatically acquire targets in a wide environment and can maintain discreet close surveillance. A simple quad copter is used to maintain contact with the hostiles. To acquire targets we use a PI sensor camera which is programmed by Raspberry Pi to automatically acquire targets. For real time tracking and surveillance we use a cloud to store co-ordinates which are continuously sent by the Quad copter. A simple application (RM7) is used to acquire data from cloud which can be used by the Quick reaction Force (QRF) to effectively neutralize threats without taking too much risks and damages. The application is made in a way so that it is compatible with any hand held device and can be used anywhere. Thus we make a drone which is modular, doesn’t require airfield and much knowledge to operate and can used in border with fewer resources.
