Question

question 8 of 10
which three decisions might a specialized drone delivering medical supplies
make once its algorithms has started and it is scanning its surroundings?

a. resume normal speed when sensor doesnt detect an obstacle
within 10 feet.

b. tilt backward when sensor detects an obstacle within 10 feet.

c. disable self - flying and alert pilot when sensor detects an obstacle
within 3 feet.

d. shut down when sensor detects an obstacle within 1 foot.

Explanation:

To determine the correct decisions, we analyze each option based on typical drone navigation logic for obstacle avoidance:

• Option A: When no obstacle is detected within 10 feet, resuming normal speed is a logical decision as the path is clear.
• Option B: Tilting backward when an obstacle is within 10 feet is a reasonable evasive action to avoid collision.
• Option C: If an obstacle is very close (within 3 feet), disabling self - flying and alerting the pilot is a safe measure as the situation is critical and human intervention may be needed.
• Option D: Shutting down when an obstacle is within 1 foot is not a typical or safe decision for a medical supply - delivering drone. Shutting down in such a close proximity could lead to a crash and loss of supplies, and it's more logical to have an evasive or alerting action rather than shutting down.

So the three correct decisions are A, B, and C.

Answer:

A. Resume normal speed when sensor doesn't detect an obstacle within 10 feet, B. Tilt backward when sensor detects an obstacle within 10 feet, C. Disable self - flying and alert pilot when sensor detects an obstacle within 3 feet
