The Federal Aviation Administration announced two new unmanned aircraft systems initiatives on Wednesday, May 6, at the Unmanned Systems 2015 conference in Atlanta.
Gumstix, Inc. today announced the latest update to its AeroCore series of MAV electronics, providing all the intelligence needed to build the next generation of microaerial vehicles. Comprising a full suite of hardware and software development tools, the AeroCore 2 is available in variants compatible with DuoVero or with Overo computersonmodule (COMs).
According to a new report by Allied Market Research entitled, "Global Robotics Technology Market- Size, Industry Analysis, Trends, Opportunities, Growth and Forecast, 2013-2020", the global robotics technology market is expected to reach $82.7 billion by 2020, registering a CAGR of 10.11% during 2014 - 2020.
For the last decade, scientists have deployed increasingly capable underwater robots to map and monitor pockets of the ocean to track the health of fisheries, and survey marine habitats and species. In general, such robots are effective at carrying out low-level tasks, specifically assigned to them by human engineers — a tedious and time-consuming process for the engineers.
Trimble announced today that it is partnering with leading unmanned aircraft system (UAS) manufacturer MULTIROTOR service-drone, GmbH. The collaboration will allow Trimble to expand its existing UAS portfolio to provide its customers with additional solutions to choose from based on their aerial imaging project needs.
Wineman Technology, Inc., a leading solutions company in automotive and aerospace test, today announced its presence at AUVSI's Unmanned Systems Conference 2015 in Atlanta, Georgia, where the company will convene with the largest global community of commercial and defense leaders in intelligent robotics, drones and unmanned systems. Wineman Technology is located in booth 3249 at the show.
The U.S. Air Force RQ-4 Global Hawk high altitude, long endurance autonomous unmanned aircraft system (UAS) successfully completed Milestone C approval from the Defense Acquisition Executive. For the Northrop Grumman Corporation-built Global Hawk program, Milestone C is a key incremental step in the Department of Defense's acquisition process that enables the program to move forward with modernization activity.
Singaporean company Horizon Unmanned Systems (HUS) unveils HYCOPTER, the world’s first hydrogen fuel cell powered multi-rotor UAV. HYCOPTER is being readied for a record flight endurance of 4 hours, or around 8 to 10 times the average flight duration of equivalent systems today.
Exelis has signed agreements with four Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)-designated unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) Test Sites for airspace situational awareness and research. The research will focus on using the Exelis Symphony® RangeVue™ sense-and-avoid tool towards safe integration of unmanned aircraft into the national airspace system.
Polaris® Industries Inc., the leading manufacturer of off-road vehicles, today announced that its Limited Edition DARPA Polaris RANGER® XP 900 EPS and GEM electric vehicles will be used as part of the DARPA Robotics Challenge (DRC) Finals to be held June 5-6, at the Fairplex, in Pomona, Calif.
