Cover Story: Interest in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has been increasingly growing in recent years, especially for purposes other than those for which they were initially used (civil and military purposes). The present work proposes an intelligent automatic charging system (Intelligent Charging Network) created using PC Engines Alix and an experimental drone prototype using a Raspberry Pi 3 and a Navio 2 module. At the same time, an efficient Intelligent Charging Network–drone communication system and a data transmission system are proposed, which allow images acquired by the drone to be transferred directly to the server used for data storage for their subsequent processing as well as the transmission of the flight plan from the QGroundControl application to the drone.
