Preface

Books on technology become outdated as soon as the technology changes faster and tries to take a good shape. But something that will not become outdated is the idea and thinking of something outside the box. In this book, we have discussed building some smart drones. We used a number of modern technologies, including Arduino and ESP8266, but you need to know one thing before starting this book. This book will enlighten you about building drones using the latest technology. To be honest, this book is not for complete beginners. You need to have a good working knowledge of electronics and programming. You need to know about Arduino and Wi-Fi technologies. All of the chapters are designed for you to get the idea and build full-phase drones. But you might miss something that is untold there, which is a challenge for you to research and increase the thirst for the drone technology, but to build successful drones, all you need is a lot of motivation, as everything you want to include in your drone is already on the market, you just have to gather them, code them, and use them. I hope this book will help you to make your journey on the path of building smart drones easier. Who knows, someday you may create something that no one ever imagined. I will wait for your success and will be delighted to know if you make anything smarter.
