I am a college grad with a degree in Criminal justice. I want to develop a low cost UAV with COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) components for security applications. Not so much "big brother" stuff as simple patrol options for places like the huge ranches in south Texas, life guard stations on large heavily trafficked beaches, or any area where there are very few personnel and ridiculously large areas of land to cover.
