In recent years, drones have become a well-deserved “protagonist†in the low-altitude area. With the rapid expansion of the drone market, countries around the world have begun to increase investment in R&D in this area, hoping to promote the development of the UAV industry in the country and compete for the industry's leading power in the future.
In fact, the original use of drones was in the military field, and it was born for war. As early as in 1916 more than 100 years ago, the British Army began using a radio-controlled aircraft - a drone. However, after various technologies have matured, especially with the implementation and promotion of the military-civilian integration strategy throughout the world, military drones have gradually extended to civil use, which has given birth to a larger new market.
In 2015, the global civil drone market was 3.6 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 33% year-on-year. Among them, the market size of domestic civilian drones was 2.33 billion yuan, an increase of 55.3% year-on-year. According to IDC's forecast, by 2019, the domestic civilian UAV market is expected to reach 3.9 million aircraft, totaling about 60 billion yuan.
After experiencing the explosion of consumer-grade drones and the awakening of industrial-grade drones, drones have been widely used in many fields. At present, drones are used by people to transport medicines, monitor disasters, film movies, spray pesticides, draw maps, inspect wires, and communicate urgently.
In addition, UAVs also have functions such as patrolling the border, tracking wild animals, taking documentaries in multiple angles, transporting materials for ships, observing the thawing of polar glaciers in the Earth, and warning of sharks in offshore waters. Obviously, the wave of drones is getting more and more rampant and sweeping and overwhelming.
At present, UAV logistics is one of the hottest topics, including giants such as SF Express and Amazon, which have already launched corresponding products. However, in fact, the application of drones in the field of logistics is far more than long-distance logistics. In the short term, drones are unlikely to replace courier brothers, but are more likely to play a role in dry and branch logistics transportation.
Of course, while the drone industry is developing rapidly, it also faces some challenges.
The first challenge is the lag in laws and regulations. Due to the rapid adoption of drones, countries around the world have not kept pace with relevant legislation. Although governments in various countries have successively introduced a series of regulatory measures and support policies in recent years, it is still relatively difficult to say perfect.
At present, national laws impose strict supervision on UAVs. The reason for this is that the legislation is lagging behind. The relevant legal system is not perfect, and we can only rely on strict management to solve the increasingly severe “black flight†and “scramblingâ€. Such phenomena. In fact, although there are reasons for the users themselves, this has a lot to do with factors such as the difficulty of flying applications, fewer flying airspaces, incomplete training systems, and inadequate legal advocacy.
Only from the perspective of the regulatory management of drone pilots in our country, you can have a glimpse of one or two. In stark contrast to the millions of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) output, the issue of driver certification for civilian unmanned aircraft systems is particularly inconsistent. In 2014, the Civil Aviation Administration of China issued regulations concerning the qualifications of unmanned aircraft pilots. However, as of the beginning of 2017, the total number of civilian drone pilot certifications was just over 10,000.
In addition to the problems in laws and regulations, China's drone industry related talents also face a huge gap. In the field of drone pilots on the front line, due to the development speed of plantation drones, patrol drones, mapping drones and many other sub-sectors, all relevant industries are in urgent need of qualified drones. .
However, there are currently only 200 UAV training institutions in China, and the drone specialty offered by colleges and universities is still at the stage of exploration. It is still difficult to provide high-quality composite talents to the market quickly. Therefore, industries, enterprises, universities, and research institutes should further strengthen cooperation to explore new talent training models and accelerate the cultivation of multi-level and multi-disciplinary professionals to provide solid support for the sustainable development of the drone industry.
The explosion of the civil drone market has made drones increasingly well-known and widely used in many fields. However, if the drone industry wants to promote sustainable development, it needs to make further breakthroughs in laws and regulations, personnel training and other aspects.
