Abstract
A dust detection apparatus includes a dust measuring unit that measures an amount of dust in air, a controller that determines a moving direction of the dust detection apparatus based on the measured amount of dust or a predetermined dust accumulation position candidate, a flight controller that controls a flight of the dust detection apparatus to the determined moving direction, and a communication unit that sends, to a server, location information of a dust accumulation position determined based on the measured amount of dust and the amount of dust measured by the dust measuring unit at the dust accumulation position.
