Multimodal Modular RAG for Drone Technology

We will take generative AI to the next level with modular RAG in this chapter. We will build a system that uses different components or modules to handle different types of data and tasks. For example, one module processes textual information using LLMs, as we have done until the last chapter, while another module manages image data, identifying and labeling objects within images. Imagine using this technology in drones, which have become crucial across various industries, offering enhanced capabilities for aerial photography, efficient agricultural monitoring, and effective search and rescue operations. They even use advanced computer vision technology and algorithms to analyze images and identify objects like pedestrians, cars, trucks, and more. We can then activate an LLM agent to retrieve, augment, and respond to a user’s question.

In this chapter, we will build a multimodal modular RAG program to generate responses to queries...
