Abstract

The recent mass commercialization of affordable unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), known as drones, has significantly altered the media production landscape, allowing for the easy acquisition of impressive aerial footage. Relevant applications include the production of movies, TV shows, or commercials as well as the filming of outdoor events or news stories. In the near future, increased drone autonomy is expected to reduce shooting costs and shift focus to the creative process, rather than the minutiae of UAV operation. This article introduces and surveys the emerging field of autonomous UAV filming and familiarizes the reader with the inherent signal processing aspects and challenges.
