In this project, we will develop a security network based on the cooperation between several UAVs. Knowing that UAV's autonomy, speed, stability and many other factors, a study will be made where we will leverage the best characteristics for our goals. Simultaneously, we will design and apply a coverage algorithm to control the distribution of the agents in the area to maximize their coverage. As result of this project we wish to have a mini-program capable of communicate with several agents, read their locations, calculate their optimal positions or patrolling routes, if they can't cover all the area with their sensor range, and send them the information needed. We also want this program to be at least simulated and if possible on the field.
