The drone, which literally means a male bee buzzing around, is a
type of unmanned aerial vehicle ("UAV")
that is remote-controlled and/or automatic, without a pilot,
carrying only equipment (camera, laser scanning device, etc.)
suitable for its intended use. Indeed, drones are also considered
UAVs under Turkish law. Nowadays, drones are used in a wide variety
of fields such as the photography and cinema sector, health sector,
shipping, firefighting, observation of natural life, inspections of
oil and gas leaks, and agricultural and farming applications.
As drones have become more popular and widely used across
various industries, regulatory bodies and governments have
implemented specific laws and regulations to address the safe and
responsible operation of drones. One of the most popular topics
discussed for drone use is "Who is the responsible person if
the drone harms any person?".
