Abstract

This article centers around how to design a smart balloon for scientific, recreational and military activities which is capable of operating at low altitudes without the need for a pilot license. In light of the smart balloon’s advantages including long-duration flights as well as the lack of noise, it can substitute drones. Desirable internet coverages coupled with imaging from low altitudes serve as the other benefits of this system. This article has examined the use of flying robots for collecting information from environments such as mountains and glasshouse which are less accessible to human beings. Under this system, the sent and received data maintains high reliability because of the isolation of different parts from one another. The use of Android controls in the software system decreases the cost significantly. The Arduino board has been taken advantage of in the hardware system. It has found wide application in industrial products due to the simplicity and transparency of programming. The examination and analysis of the smart balloon reveals the fact that the system performs efficiently under various situations.
