Description
Summary:The application areas of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) are vast. The ever-increasing deployment of UAS is pushed further by advancements and cost effectiveness. It is not uncommon to come across makeshift UAS composed of off-the-shelf components that can be purchased from electronics stores. These components/systems are so easy to obtain and assemble to make homemade UAS, which then can be used by anyone for any purpose seen fit. This paper introduces the first of a set of privacy preserving measures and techniques for UAS applications. The system conceptual design will have a few versions, which the authors will apply in different setting in the subsequent research activities. For the sake of presenting the UAS Visual Privacy Guard system, the authors will use news reporting as an application.
