Abstract
In the current era, to upgrade the facilities and features of UAVs, the implementation of IoT and AI is mandatory. It helps the drone to provide accurate data after analysing a particular situation. Moreover, it also helps to access the drone from any device with the help of an android app. The application of AI and IoT has enhanced the popularity of drones worldwide. This study has analysed the application of IoT and AI in UAVs to make them more efficient. This research has evaluated IoT and AI's positive and negative impacts on UAVs. Moreover, it has determined solutions to mitigate them effectively.
Keywords: IoT, AI, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)
