“…Although many techniques are described to adapt different applications of UAVs, the UAV-related devices still require further research. In details, drone design, monitoring UAV system, vertiport design, and charging techniques [104] designed external features, projected graphics, sound and the cultural context of UAVs with numerous human-based factors; the exterior forms (e.g., capacity, size, material and safety) of UAVs were defined in [107]. Monitoring UAVs aims at guaranteeing the safety of drones and their performing tasks.…”

There exists a tremendous number of research surveys on various aspects of UAV logistics, mobility and monitoring tasks in the literature. These surveys have been published in distinct venues, often having a significant overlap in goals and key findings. In this study, we provide a meta review across nearly 100 extant UAV surveys and overview papers, extract their key messages, and investigate the extent of being complementary. We develop the AERIAL framework, which aggregates the major challenges on the way to a successful application of UAVs for logistics, mobility, and monitoring. We believe that AERIAL framework and meta review contribute towards a clearer understanding of the scientific UAV landscape challenges and the identification of potential directions for future research studies.

“…In this section, we propose to define the characteristic of social drones grounding the definition of social robots and highlighting the specificity of social drones. The literature on the design of social drones was recently reviewed by Baytas et al (2019). In their review, they gave a summary of three main design categories and twelve design aspects that were identified from related literature.…”

“…In parallel, researchers have looked at utilizing drones in several application domains [see Obaid et al (2020a)], such as entertainment Rubens et al (2020), sports [Romanowski et al (2017); Mueller and Muirhead (2015)], domestic companions Karjalainen et al (2017), local services [Obaid et al (2015b); Knierim et al (2018)], videography Chen et al (2018), art Kim and Landay (2018), and more. A recent review by Baytas et al (2019) on designing drones, suggests that drone application domains that target domestic-human environments can be defined as "social drones". Based on a more recent HDI survey by Tezza and Andujar (2019), it is foreseeable that drones will become a ubiquitous technology deployed in many new application domains within our society, but they have not yet been investigated.…”

Education is one of the major application fields in social Human-Robot Interaction. Several forms of social robots have been explored to engage and assist students in the classroom environment, from full-bodied humanoid robots to tabletop robot companions, but flying robots have been left unexplored in this context. In this paper, we present seven online remote workshops conducted with 20 participants to investigate the application area of Education in the Human-Drone Interaction domain; particularly focusing on what roles a social drone could fulfill in a classroom, how it would interact with students, teachers and its environment, what it could look like, and what would specifically differ from other types of social robots used in education. In the workshops we used online collaboration tools, supported by a sketch artist, to help envision a social drone in a classroom. The results revealed several design implications for the roles and capabilities of a social drone, in addition to promising research directions for the development and design in the novel area of drones in education.

How is ethics shaped by the particularities of a design? Through a detailed video analysis, we explore how ethicality is shaped in interaction between a choreographer, a performer and a choir of five drones, performing together on the opera stage. We pinpoint how movements enabled by the humandrone assemblage may limit or liberate artistic expressions vis-à-vis the norms of operatic performance. From a somaesthetics perspective on ethics, we show how the process of crafting rich experiences together with drones can deepen sensory appreciation skills, leading to an increased understanding of underlying somatic drivers and imposed norms. Somatic awareness thereby enables a richer repertoire of movements, expanding the ability to freely choose how to act, and cultivating empathy towards others. This shifts our understanding of ethics in HCI as solely about abstract rules or policies 'out there' to also concern the specifics of how technology informs or dictates movement and experience.
