Moving Sensors standard #98

Open ghobona opened 5 years ago

A new generation of UAVs is emerging, based around flocks and swarms. A variety of algorithms are being developed in the research community.

For example, https://robotics.sciencemag.org/content/3/20/eaat3536

If we have Moving Features and flocks of UAVs, can we imagine a situation where a UAV flock adapts itself based on the observations that are being made by the collective of sensors on the UAVs?

This might call for a Moving Sensors standard.

Perhaps it's a special case of a Sensor Planning Service (SPS) in which the sensor is self-tasking and able to adjust its position based on the positions of the moving features.
