Video Live Streaming System on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) Using Autonomous Waypoint Navigation to Support Traffic Monitoring System

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have been widely utilized in various fields, including traffic monitoring. UAVs have the potential to provide wide area coverage for traffic monitoring. In this article, we will discuss real-time traffic monitoring using UAVs with live-streaming video. The UAVs are equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) features for object detection on the road. Direct experiments were conducted by implementing UAVs monitoring on Jalan Setiabudi Bandung, West Java. The results show that the UAVs's accuracy for object detection has an average value of 76.78%. The AI processing on the UAVs produces 1.43125 and 1.466 Frames per second (FPS) for real-time object detection video frames. The UAVs monitoring website works well, and the website features can be accessed smoothly. Overall, the results demonstrate the potential of using UAVs with AI technology for traffic monitoring and surveillance.
