“…Initially, UAVs were primarily used for imaging purposes by incorporating cameras (Altan & Hacıoğlu, 2020;Karaduman et al, 2019;Khan et al, 2022;Yao et al, 2019). Over time, they were employed for sample collection (Bonyan Khamseh et al, 2018;Hamaza et al, 2019) and object transport (Altuğ et al, 2020;de Angelis & Giulietti, 2023;Vidyadhara et al, 2022) by attaching various grippers (Ballesteros-Escamilla et al, 2019;Liang et al, 2023;Stewart et al, 2023). Similarly, their usage in agricultural practices, such as seed scattering and spraying, has become more widespread (Guillen-Climent et al, 2012;Wang et al, 2022;Yıldırım & Ulu, 2023;Zheng et al, 2022).…”
