Title: Writing aSpecification for a Smart Farming Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)

Description:

You are a newly graduated student from the University of Newcastle (UON) majoring in computer science. During your study, you have been part of the Smart Farming Lab doing various research and technological experiments on creating new complex algorithms for effective farm management with UAVs. One of the projects that you have completed during your affiliation to the lab was pest control in farms using UAVs. These custom designed UAVs will help in detecting and controlling pests by spraying pest control chemicals. You think this UAV design is worth patented for the innovative features it has.

Some features that you claimed to be available in your solution:

1.    Ability to detect pests onboard using advanced machine learning algorithm during flight.

2.    Ability to spray the right amount of pest control chemical based on the type of pests.

3.    … ..

4.    … ..

5.    … ..

IMPORTANT: Two features are given above, you must add 3-4 more features based on your research after consulting with your lecturer

NOTE:  To  prepare  your  specification  document,  you  can  begin  by  reading  some  journal  papers provided on Canvas on UAVs for smart farming. However, you must search more journal papers to find additional features for smart farming UAVs.

In order to apply for the invention patent, you have to write a specification for your invention and send it to IP Australia. Instead of using the service of a patent attorney, you have decided to apply for the patent at your own by visiting the IP Australia website. The following information  have  been summarized  from  the  IP  Australia  website  with  regards  to  writing  specification  for  your  patent application.
