Research and Markets has reported that a new book titled “Sense and Avoid in UAS. Research and Applications" from John Wiley and Sons has been added to its portfolio.
The potential of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) and MAV (Micro Air Vehicle) technology has gained growing interest. There is also substantial demand for its extensive applications such as defence missions, disaster zone assessment, reconnaissance and surveillance, atmospheric research, and border patrol. The military sector’s high investment levels promote R&D. Autonomous platforms can also actively replace the highly-adopted remotely piloted vehicles.
UAV/UAS create new challenges such as in autonomy, sense and avoid, collision avoidance, and detect and avoid, involving both regulatory and technical issues.
The book gives information based on the issues underlying detect, sense and avoid in UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems). It provides integrated theoretical and application results determined by expertise academics and researchers from both academia and industry.
The book features professional, scientific and reliable content for simple and effective reading. It showcases the overall ‘sense and avoid’ problem in broader application of autonomous systems. Information on regulatory issues and navigation, human factors, control, aerodynamics and physics aspects of the ‘sense and avoid’ problem in UAS has been included in addition to presenting contributions from expertise engineers and researchers in the field.
This new book serves as a resource of original and specific information. It can also be used as a reference manual for advanced theoretical researchers, graduate engineers and postgraduate students. Sense and Avoid in UAS: Research and Applications reliably provides ample information of the UAS sector.
