This paper presents the open universal framework intended for fast prototyping or building a short series of specialized flying monitoring systems able to work in urban and industrial areas. The proposed framework combines mobility of UAV with IoT measurements and full-stack WebRTC communications. WebRTC offers simultaneous transmission of both a real-time video stream and the flow of data coming from sensors, and ensures a kind of protection of data flow, which leads to preserving its near-real-time character and enables contextual communication. Addition of the AI accelerator hardware makes this system AI-ready, i.e., the IoT communication hub, which is the air component of our system, is able to perform tasks of AI-supported computing. The exemplary prototype of this system was evaluated in terms of the ability to work with fast-response sensors, the ability to work with high temporal and high spatial resolutions, video information in poor visibility conditions and AI-readiness. Results show that prototypes based on the proposed framework are able to meet the challenges of monitoring systems in smart cities and industrial areas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s21124061","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,14]],"date-time":"2021-06-14T22:25:46Z","timestamp":1623709546000},"page":"4061","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["UAV-Based and WebRTC-Based Open Universal Framework to Monitor Urban and Industrial Areas"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8958-9426","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Agnieszka","family":"Chodorek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Applied Computer Science, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Automatic Control and Computer Science, Kielce University of Technology, Al. 1000-lecia P.P. 7, 25-314 Kielce, Poland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0772-5093","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Robert Ryszard","family":"Chodorek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Telecommunications, Faculty of Computer Science, Electronics and Telecommunications, The AGH University of Science and Technology, Al.
