Not Just Winging It
Path planning algorithms will bolster beyond visual line of sight UAV flights
Quantum Sensing
Profound change could be ahead for airborne reality capture and mapping, in the realm of quantum physics. The term “quantum leap” is often used loosely to describe excitement over new technologies. This time, though, the “quantum” part is literal—specifically, “quantum sensing.” In this case, it is the leveraging of quantum physics, quantum mechanics, particle states,...

Under Pressure
Can traditional aerial photogrammetry survive in the era of uncrewed aviation?
Micro-Drones Moving into Commercial Operations
Micro-drones, those that weigh less than 250 grams, are popular with recreational UAV flyers for several reasons. They are relatively inexpensive, with models starting at under $500. Additionally, the 249-gram-and-under category requires no FAA registration, nor do they fall under the remote ID (RID) regulation. Now, with the aid of sophisticated flight planning and automated...
Fresh Specs That Are Lifting the UAV Game
The latest UAV technologies released in the first quarter of this year seem to be bucking the trend of white-washed main frames and disappearing control buttons commonly seen in the last five years. Instead, the current crop of drones is gaining more advanced robotic payloads, as well as imbibing unconventional shapes that allow for better...
