The primary aim of the Follow Me Drones System (FMDS) is to provide support to a ranger in the field.
The system will identify any dangers in the vicinity of the ranger by identifying that which is possibly undetectable to a human walking in the bush.
It will estimate the objects threat level to the ranger and notify them ranger of any detections.
Each identified object will be recorded and will have a pin placed on a 2D virtual map where the object was detected.
