While the convergence of these revolutionary technologies offers hithertounseen growth prospects, it also brings with it special difficulties that need careful manoeuvring. Future growth prospects of the drone industry using blockchain technology and AI, handling related risks and cybersecurityissues, and investigating environmentally friendly technical solutions are the main subjects touched upon. It is a privilege for ASSOCHAM to collaborate with PwC for this report on ‘Opportunities in the drone sector with theadoption of AI and blockchain’. We hope that the report will strengthen our efforts to support innovation and technicalgrowth in India. Foreword Perminder Jeet KaurSenior DirectorASSOCHAM Eastern Region The convergence of drones, AI, and blockchain technology is set to revolutionise numerous industries, offeringunprecedented opportunities. The integration of AI with drone technology represents a significant leap in autonomous systems. AI empowers droneswith enhanced autonomy, intelligence and decision-making abilities. The future of AI-powered drones holds promisingprospects, this also calls for ethical frameworks and responsible deployment. In India, drones have a key role to play in the agriculture, disaster management, public services, mining and defencesectors. The report in partnership with PwC addresses key topics like managing cybersecurity risks, exploring sustainabletech solutions, and integrating drone technology with blockchain and AI. Foreword Sudipta Ghosh Partner, Data and Analytics Leader, Industrial Products LeaderPwC India Once a specialised technology, drones are now indispensable in many fields. Drones equipped with AI have access tosophisticated data processing capabilities that allow them to adjust to changing conditions and make judgements in realtime. For instance, drones with AI capabilities are transforming crop management in agriculture by evaluating enormousvolumes of data to optimise growing conditions and yield forecasts. These smart drones are also enhancing response timesand efficacy in disaster response by offering vital real-time information for search and rescue operations. AI-powered drones are also improving security and surveillance systems. Drones can monitor large areas for possiblethreats or environmental changes by utilising picture recognition and pattern analysis. This opens up new possibilities forinfrastructure management, security and wildlife protection. Though promising, technological breakthroughs also raise significant ethical and regulatory questions. Therefore, it isimportant to address potential data security issues and ensure that AI-enabled drones can be used ethically. Maximisingthe advantages and minimising the negative impacts of this technology will require a balance between innovation andethical issues. This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of the present uses of AI-enabled drones and potential future developmentsin drone technology. It seeks to provide insights into how the technological synergy between AI and drone technology cantransform numerous sectors and open up new development options by showcasing noteworthy use cases and real-worldapplications. Foreword Arijit ChakrabortiPartner, Technology ConsultingPwC India The combination of blockchain, drone technology, AI and geospatial analytics is a significant development in aerialvehicles. Important insights into spatial patterns are provided by geospatial analytics which can be enhanced with AI’s real-time and predictive capabilities. Blockchain safeguards the integrity of the data by introducing a crucial layer of securityand transparency.
