Unmanned aerial vehicles, previously used for military purposes, have started to be used for civilian purposes since the 2000s. With the widespread use of unmanned aerial vehicles, mostly used for defense purposes, they have turned into flying vehicles called drones. Today, it is used for different purposes such as taking pictures, taking images from inaccessible places, competitions, and having a good time. However, it continues to evolve, playing an important role in social media and inter-company competition. In recent years, studies have continued on small drones that can fly autonomously, especially in closed areas, and assist people. The shrinkage and cost reduction of electronic components such as microprocessors, sensors, batteries, and wireless communication units shows that drones smaller than 1 kg will soon occur in many areas of our daily life at much more affordable prices. This rapid change, development, and proliferation of drones also raise privacy and security concerns. While obtaining images of people and institutions in supposedly private environments with such technological devices emphasizes individual security, its use in urban areas and airports draws attention to social security. The rapid developments in this area necessitate the necessary regulations and controls to prevent accidents and other problems due to the growth in use and loss of control.
