Research on training Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to create 3D human body avatars from 2D datasets is underway. Research done in this field shows promise and has paved the way for significant advancements in a variety of applications, including virtual reality, sports analysis, cinematography, surveillance, and cinematography. By avoiding obstacles and producing high-resolution, rich-information multi-view (RGB) images, drone active tracking combined with aerial photography sensors can eliminate occlusions and enable 3D avatar body reconstruction. Due to several issues, such as restricted perspective coverage, obvious occlusions, and texture disappearance, 3D avatar reconstruction techniques encounter training failures that cause distortions and feature loss in 3D reconstructed models. The new endto-end trainable deep neural network methodology PIXGAN-Drone is presented in this paper for the photorealistic 3D avatar of the human body reconstruction from multi-view images. It is based on the integration of active tracking drones equipped with aerial photography sensors (stable automatic circular motion system) into the Pix2Pix GANs training framework to generate high-resolution 2D models. Conditional image-toimage translation and dynamic aerial perspectives can be used to develop realistic and accurate 3D models. This research conducted experiments on multiple datasets to demonstrate the improved performance of our method over state-of-the-art methods for various metrics (Chamfer, P2S, and CED). The results showed that our 3D reconstructed human avatars were 0.0293, 0.0271, and 0.0232 on RenderPeople, 0.0133, 0.0136, 0.0050 on People Snapshot (indoor), 0.0154, 0.0101, 0.0063 on People Snapshot (outdoor), and 0.0316, 0.0275, 0.0216 on Custom data-drone (collected dataset).INDEX TERMS 3D human avatar, 3D reconstruction, PIX2PIXGAN, body model rendering, drone active tracking.

“…La bondad de los drones depende de la tipología de los mismos, contando con una gran diversidad de modelos en lo referente al tamaño, peso, alcance, costo, precisión de movimientos, o capacidad de carga, entre otras características. (Georgiou et al, 2022;Mendis, 2017;Sharma et al, 2019).…”

Este artículo se centra en el uso de un vehículo aéreo no tripulado (VANTs) o también llamados drones “Vehículo aéreo destinado a volar sin piloto a bordo y pilotado desde una estación de pilotaje a distancia” los cuales son utilizados en la inspección ocular técnica I.O.T. Para ello, en el presente artículo se realizó una revisión de los casos en los cuales se han utilizado los drones en la explotación de la escena de un delito o del hecho. Los resultados revelaron que estos dispositivos se han utilizado con éxito en una variedad de situaciones y pueden proporcionar información valiosa sobre el lugar de los hechos, siendo vital para el esclarecimiento y reconstrucción de los hechos. También pueden mejorar la eficiencia y la seguridad al reducir el tiempo necesario para la fijación, recopilación de indicios y al eliminar la exposición de los miembros policiales a zonas inaccesibles desplazarse por cualquier tipo de terreno, lugares peligrosos y accidentados e incluso por el mar, ríos, lagos, abismos, etc. Sin embargo, también se señalaron varias limitaciones, incluyendo la falta de conocimiento y entrenamiento sobre el uso de los VANTs, la falta de un marco legal y normativo adecuado, el costo de adquisición y mantenimiento, y el riesgo de violación de la privacidad de la ciudadanía. En general, se concluye que estos artefactos tienen el potencial de ser una herramienta útil y eficaz para la investigación del lugar de los hechos, pero se necesitan más estudios para determinar su verdadera utilidad.

“…In particular, a drone can provide detection rates of nearly 100%. Increased detection speed over large areas, and high detection rates in different types of terrain—thanks to computer vision techniques [ 57 , 58 , 59 ]. To save lives during emergencies, it is also possible to detect the human body using UAV camera image processing.…”

The term unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was post-applied in the 1980s to describe remotely piloted multi-purpose, unmanned, autonomous aircraft. The terms unmanned aircraft systems with data terminal connectivity (UAS) and remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPV, RPAS—military systems) are also used. This review aims to analyze the feasibility of using UAVs to support emergency medical systems in the supply and urgent care ranges. The implementation of drones in the medical security system requires proper planning of service cooperation, division of the area into sectors, assessment of potential risks and opportunities, and legal framework for the application. A systematic literature search was conducted to assess the applicability based on published scientific papers on possible medical drone applications in the field of urgent mode. The widespread applications of UAVs in healthcare are concerned with logistics, scope, and transportability, with framework legal constraints to effectively exploit opportunities for improving population health, particularly for costly critical situations.
