M-CADOR is a monitoring system using a swarm of autonomous drones.Each drone has an artificial intelligence allowing optimal exploration of the area to be monitored. In order to be free of constraints of battery life, the aircraft uses a charging bases system. The bio-inspired system relies on collective intelligence similar to a swarm of bees.

A control interface allows the operator to control the swarm and to define the areas to be monitored. The controller can also watch video clips. Indeed, an algorithm selects the most relevant video sequences.

Possibles missions are natural disaster prevention and surveillance of industrial areas.
