Date/Time: Wednesday, October 26– 3:00 – 4:00pm ET
Webinar Description:
Perception, in terms of autonomy, involves these machines using sensors, cameras, and advanced software to collect, process, and interpret real-time data that informs the vehicles decisions. As one of the most crucial pieces for the safe and reliable operation of uncrewed systems, these systems need to be virtually flawless.
Join this AUVSI webinar to take a deeper look into the latest technologies being developed that are helping to perfect autonomous perception.

Sensor Fusion Visualized for the Operator in a Complex Multi-sensor World
Date/Time: Wednesday, November 9th at 3:00 – 4:00 pm EDT
Webinar Description:
Kongsberg Geospatial will describe their IRIS Airspace Management and control platform which allows for control of multiple UAS per operator in BVLOS conditions. A key feature of IRIS is the ability to correlate and fuse similar and dissimilar sensor types to present a single fused track to the operator. With Airspace Management and safe vehicle operation involving more and more sensor feeds, this presentation will describe and show a video of the IRIS platform’s ability to integrate and fuse sensor feeds to present a clean uncluttered airspace visualization of fused tracks to the operator.

Enabling Regulatory Breakthroughs for the Drone Industry with Skydio
Date/Time: Wednesday, November 2nd at 3:00 – 4:00 pm EDT
Webinar Description:
Existing drone regulations were written for conventional manual drones, but the advent of trustworthy autonomy enables new modes of operation and regulatory approaches. As a result, the FAA and global regulators are issuing path-breaking waivers that allow missions beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS), even without the traditional requirements of visual observers and expensive ground-based radars.

Utilizing Skydio Drones to Improve & Scale Critical Infrastructure Inspections for Departments of Transportation
Date/Time: Wednesday, July 27th at 3:00 – 4:00 pm EDT
Webinar Description:
Departments of Transportation (DOTs) are increasingly turning to drone technology to supplement critical infrastructure inspections. From bridge and construction inspections to post-incident damage assessments, the use of drones is helping transportation agencies improve safety, accelerate decision-making, and enhance asset maintenance.
June UAS flight with no chase plane points to future, NASA and GA-ASI say
The June flight of a large unmanned aircraft in the National Airspace System without the use of a chase plane took “thousands of hours” and a tightly integrated detect and avoid system, NASA and industry officials said on Thursday.
“This historic flight moves the United States one step closer to normalizing unmanned aircraft operations across the U.S.,” NASA said in a press release announcing a press teleconference held Thursday afternoon to discuss the historic flight.
On June 12, NASA and partners General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI), Honeywell and the Federal Aviation Administration conducted the demonstration, a 2.5-hour flight not far from Los Angeles.
