AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS: ADVANCES AND APPLICATIONS
– An new interdisciplinary book

Editor: San Murugesan

Autonomous systems will be a game changer. Several such systems are already in use performing different tasks in diverse areas and yielding several benefits. Poised to evolve further, they will surely find widespread adoption. Technologies such as AI, ML, IoT, sensors, drones, robotics, and nano, among others, will extend the capabilities of autonomous systems. Autonomous systems will transform many different sectors in unimaginable ways. They are attracting significant interest among researchers, practitioners and business executives and propelling new research, novel application development, increased investment and new business opportunities. 

This unique new interdisciplinary book will provide a comprehensive coverage of various elements of autonomous systems and their adoption – technologies, applications, development considerations, challenges, issues and concerns, and more. The book will discuss several major advances in this area, offer varying perspectives and helpful insights and feature several real-world applications. It will also examine and address regulatory, ethical and socio-technical concerns.
