Practice through virtual reality can increase the educational effect regardless of time and place, and it is an educational method that is being pursued even in the situation of COVID-19. On the other hand, for VR-based education, related technology development and content development must be made, and experiential methods (flipped learning, blended learning, hybrid learning) must be provided in the educational process. The development scenario was developed with the contents of drone qualification test (ultra-light unmanned multicopter) and drone practice and the possibility of non-face-to-face self-directed learning (flipped learning, blended learning, hybrid learning). It is expected that the quality of vocational education related to drones and the effect of high education will be improved through the contents, and it is thought that it will be possible to suggest a direction for the development of various vocational education contents in non-face-to-face education.

A drone invented for the military has been increased the range of application with the development of relevant technology, and it influences to include the private area. Currently, the use of drone has been increasing in many areas, such as agriculture, unmanned parcel service, production of image contents, and architecture. In 2021, South of Korea, a drone certificate system for drone flight is introduced and on operation. In case of drone flight with the maximum takeoff weight as 2kg or up, the flight experience and practical examination are required, whereas in case of drone lighter than 2kg, the online education qualification is enough to operate it without the flight experience and practical examination. Recently, the drone related accidents have been increasing with the rapidly supply of camera drones with the maximum takeoff weight as less than 2kg. This paper introduces the characteristics of the camera drone to meet burgeoning demand, and discusses an education plan for the camera drone.

Recently, the drone industry rapidly rises to the surface as the new market leading the future, and it seems that the hot UAV drone market shows the similar trend to that of the smartphone. It is expected that the individual application of the drone is quickly diffused as the smartphone roles of camera and game player with the communication medium. For example, the drone is developed mainly as war weapons, but now it is getting close to our real life as the toy or tool for the aerial photography. In this paper, we studied the education for how to bring the aging population to the drone industry. Previously, the controlling skill and taking aerial photography seemed to have nothing to do with citizen seniors. However, we develop the education for try to show any positive relationship between those, in this paper, thus creating more job opportunities for them.

In this paper, presents an efficient education method for training specialized edutainment SW education instructors and drone realistic media creators, not just training to acquire certificates through drone manipulation training. To this end, the NCS-based curriculum was derived. The developed curriculum includes the edutainment drone curriculum and the realistic media creator curriculum. Among them, core responsibilities were defined for the drone control curriculum and core tasks, knowledge, and attitudes were described for each. After that, a detailed curriculum for drone control was derived. In the realistic media creator curriculum, pilot education was conducted to actually produce advertisement videos to foster experts who can work directly in the industrial field. Finally, through holding an online conference in a metaverse environment, a virtual conference was operated to share and discuss media videos produced by trainees. After the end of education, the efficiency of this curriculum was proved through education satisfaction analysis for 46 education graduates. This paper presented a method to achieve internalization of SW education in non-face-to-face online education that our society must solve after post-COVID-19. In addition, an efficient educational method in a realistic media environment was suggested by showing a realistic media creator training curriculum, pilot programs, and metaverse conference management cases.

Drones will evolve from military to personal or social purposes. How can people socially interact with a drone that is familiar to them? This study explored the social proximity of human drone interaction with safety glass wall between participants and drone. The experiment results showed that drone's altitude, size and gender factor did not significantly affect social proxemics as to what extent participants got closer to hovering drones by the limitation of the distance from the safety wall. However, it shows a tendency that participants more closely approached an eye-level drone compared with an overhead drone, and females tended to approach more closely males. This study consequently demonstrated that most participants are nearly ready to allow a near field operation of social drone under safe conditions.

The drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle which has no human pilot. Drones can be classified into military drones, commercial drones, and personal drones by usage. Also, drones can be classified from large-sized to nano-sized drone by size and autonomous, remote controlled drone by control type. Especially, military drones can be classified into low-altitude drones, medium-altitude, and high-altitude drones by altitude. Recently, the drone industry is one of the fast growing industries in the world. As drone technologies have become more advanced and cost-effective, Korean government has set its goal to become a top-level country in drone business. However, the government's strict regulation for drone operations is one of the biggest hurdles for the development of the related technologies in Korea and other countries. For example, critical problems for drone delivery can be classified into technical issues and institutional issues. Technical issues include durability, conditional awareness, grasp and release mechanisms, collision avoidance systems, drone operating system. Institutional issues include pilot and operator licensing, privacy rules, noise guidelines, security rules, education for drone police. This study analyzes the trends of the drone industry from the viewpoint of technology and regulation. Also, we define the business areas of drone utilization. Especially, the drone business types or models for public sector are proposed. Drone services or functions promoting public interests need to be aligned with the business reference model of Korean government. To define ten types of drone uses for public sector, we combine the business types of government with the future uses of drones that are proposed by futurists and business analysts. Future uses of drones can be divided into three sectors or services. First, drone services for public or military sectors include early warning systems, emergency services, news reporting, police drones, library drones, healthcare drones, travel drones. Second, drone services for commercial or industrial services include parcel delivery drones, gaming drones, sporting drones, farming and agriculture drones, ranching drones, robotic arm drones. Third, drone services for household sector include smart home drones.

With the development of the industry, the use of drones in specific mission flight is being actively studied. These drones fly a specified path and perform repetitive tasks. if the drone system will detect objects in real time, the performance of these mission flight will increase. In this paper, we implement object detection system and mount GPU acceleration to maximize the efficiency of limited device resources with drone video using Tensorflow Lite which enables in-device inference from a mobile device and Mobile SDK of DJI, a drone manufacture. For performance comparison, the average processing time per frame was measured when object detection was performed using only the CPU and when object detection was performed using the CPU and GPU at the same time.

Drone technology has been used in various fields including personal hobby, pesticide application and shipping etc. However, only few drone technologies are used in restricted fields such as transportation of alimony goods and utilization of video because of the limited utilization aspect of disaster management field. Especially, disaster specialists' the lack of understanding of the drones seems to increase the difficulty of activating drone technology in disaster management. The theme of the thesis aims to share outline of drones' control method and education plan. This project also analysis the reasons why drone has not been used in disaster management with the fact that drone can be a vital part of emergency management. We propose improved application plan to use drone technology and future development direction in disaster management by deriving problems in terms of institutional aspects(regulation and education) and sensor-based application problems camera, thermal camera, infrared sensor, RFID.

The drone serves the customers not served by vans. At the same time, considering the safety, policy and terrain as well as the need to replace the battery, the drone needs to be transported by truck to the identified station along with the parcel. From each such station, the drone serves a subset of customers according to a direct assignment pattern, i.e., every time the drone is launched, it serves one demand node and returns to the station to collect another parcel. Similarly, the truck is used to transport the drone and cargo between stations. This is somewhat different from the research of other scholars. In terms of the joint distribution of the drone and road vehicle, most scholars will choose the combination of two transportation tools, while we use three. The drone and vans are responsible for distribution services, and the trucks are responsible for transporting the goods and drone to the station. The goal is to optimize the total delivery cost which includes the transportation costs for the vans and the delivery cost for the drone. A fixed cost is also considered for each drone parking site corresponding to the cost of positioning the drone and using the drone station. A discrete optimization model is presented for the problem in addition to a two-phase heuristic algorithm. The results of a series of computational tests performed to assess the applicability of the model and the efficiency of the heuristic are reported. The results obtained show that nearly 10% of the cost can be saved by combining the traditional delivery mode with the use of a drone and drone stations.
