Have you worked with large numbers? I feel like industrial scale drone swarms would be much different than the consumer ones we're used to. Even military ones that are individually very valuable.
Possibly. You might be right. But the experiences I had with them are less then stellar. They are fickle, break easily, are more work than you'd think to maintain and have not so great flight time. I might have a tainted experience and maybe just one data point, maybe many thing changed in the last 3 years. But my experience with them is this.
I kept looking at the many consumer drone startups that kept popping up and promising various abilities, but they were, almost all of them, lacking. Videography and photogrammetry are the few fields where they took off, and that is because there you have a trained individual controlling the drone. I find it hard to find any startups or products where drones with high autonomy are being successful.
Am open to being proved wrong though, I'm always excited to see development in this field.
