자료가 좀 늦었습니다.

명절 연휴 잘 들 쉬셨나요?

이제 새학년의 시작이 얼마 남지 않았네요.

새로운 학년을 잘 준비하기 위한 남은 봄방학의 시간을 잘 보내길 바래요.

오늘의 주제는 dron입니다.

dron이라는것을 우리가 알게 된게 그리 오래된 것 같지 않은데

기술의 발전이 매우 빨라 dron의 쓰임이 다양해지고 빠른 속도로 진화하고 있습니다.

모든 기술이 그렇듯 장점만 있지는 않아서 dron 또한 문제점도 많이 대두되고 있어요.

스크립트와 준비한 자료를 보고 dron에 대한 본인들의 생각을 적어 보시길 ~

<스크립트 요약>

Drones have become commonplace in the skies above our heads.

In certain cases they have been dangerous, but there are many new uses for them that are bringing us benefits too.

From delivering parcels to saving lives, drones are taking off.

Drons are in the news quite often for good and bad reasons.

They've been used for many things from smuggling drugs, detecting water leaks and surveillance.

Are drons safe and are they necessary?

I've heard about them being a hazard to aircraft because they've been flown close to airports.

There were 70 near misses involving drones in 2016 showed that in the UK.

And that's more than double the year before.

There's the potential risk of people's privacy being invaded when a drone is flown over their property with a camera attached to it.

But those cameras are also good at capturing some great aerial footage – that's the film recording of the view from the above the ground.

They have the potential to be dangerous, agreed.

They also have though, on the flip side, the ability to be a game changer in both domestic use and in military use.

So, some of our drones are being used for aircraft inspections. We've put our drones into Fukushima.

Drones being a game changer is UNICEF and the Malawian government testing drones for carrying medical supplies. This could help save lives in remote places.

Lifeguards are using drones to help rescue swimmers who get in trouble in the sea in Australia,

A Japanese firm that's planning to use a drone to force employees out of their offices by playing music at them if they stay to work evening overtime.

I am a little concerned about how drons are regulated or controlled.

Dr Yoge Patel, CEO, Blue Bear

As technology progresses, regulation and operational use needs to then be harmonised with it.

And we are, as a community, going through that whole process of saying what is proportionate and appropriate regulation to go with different uses of drones.
