Flock

“我们很快就会被无人机包围。美国联邦航空局（美国联邦航空局）预测，到2020年，美国天空中将有30000架无人机。工程师们正急于准备这项技术。他们正在开发的系统将能够在不需要任何监督的情况下飞行。不幸的是，无人机无法理解它们对地面上的人可能产生的影响。它们很吵，不可预测，可能很可怕。当无人机对一个人做出反应时，已经太晚了，无法避免影响。有必要让无人机注意并尊重公民。无人机应该了解它们对人口的影响，并做出相应的规划。Flock是一个面向社会的无人机动态城市飞行规划师。在公民位置数据的支持下，能够理解和定义每条飞行路径将产生的中断。通过这种方式，可以计划飞行以减少其影响，甚至在无人机开始飞行之前就改变它们。在信息时代，我们应该利用我们正在生成的数据，并利用它为所有人，人类和机器创造一个更愉快的环境。羊群就是这样。构建未来人类与无人机共存的基础设施。"

"We will soon be surrounded by drones. The FAA (The Federal Aviation Agency of the US) forecasts that there will be 30000 drones in the american sky by 2020.Engineers are rushing to have the technology ready. They are developing systems that will be able to fly without any need of supervision.Unfortunately, drones are not able to understand the impact they can have on the people on the ground. They are noisy, unpredictable and could be scary. By the time an autonomous drone reacts to a person is too late avoid the impact.There is a need to make drones notice and respect citizens. Drones should understand the impact they have on the population, and plan accordingly.Flock is a ProSocial dynamic urban flight planner for drones. Powered by the citizens location data, is able to understand and define the disruption each flight path will have. This way, flights can be planned to reduce their impact, and change them even before the drone started flying.n the era of information we should get advantage of the data we are generating, and use it to create a more pleasant environment for all, humans and machines. That’s what flock does. Building the future infrastructure for humans to coexist with drones. "
