Introduction Unmanned systems use special technologies and strategies to determine motion parameters, recognize the surrounding space, and interact with it. Using these data, the system finds out its speed, coordinates, and distance to objects (Kyrkou, Timotheou, Kolios, Theocharides, & Panayiotou, 2019). Moreover, as a rule, a-priori information – a mathematical...
Introduction The concept of access control is confusing to many people. Some consider it as the act of preventing external sources from accessing information stored in a system. They are unable to differentiate between access control and identity verification or authentication. Sicuranza, Esposito, and Ciampi (2015) define access control as...
Introduction Modern technology is now introducing to the broad audience various innovations, which can rather simplify or completely replace human activity.
