In a recent episode of Mission Critical, Ryan Robertson talks with Brittany Duncan of the School of Computing's NIMBUS Drone Lab about the difference between unmanned vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and true drone swarms. Duncan explains why drone light shows aren’t true swarms, and retired Air Force Col. George Dougherty discusses the spectrum from remote control to autonomy and why the hardest part for autonomous systems may be dealing with things they’ve never seen before.
