A hot topic for some time has been the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) authority over navigable airspace and, thus, the confusion surrounding federal preemption for state and local unmanned aircraft system (UAS) laws. Now, the FAA has issued...

It seems like drones are everywhere these days – in the news, in stores, and in the air above us. From technology and uses to risks and regulations, here's a crash course (no pun intended) on this rapidly advancing technology.

The classic joystick method to pilot drones may soon be replaced by new technology that allows users to drive the unmanned aerial vehicles using just the motion of their bodies.

Rolls-Royce has unveiled a concept electric vertical take-off and landing (EVTOL) vehicle at the Farnborough International Airshow 2018.

Over the last several years, a variety of methods have been developed for the conversion of biomass feedstocks to full-performance renewable fuels. One important pathway relies on the dehydration of renewable alcohols to alkenes followed by oligomerization to jet fuel range hydrocarbons. Navy scientists have developed a process for the conversion of renewable alcohols to high-performance fuels. Higher net heats of combustion (NHOC), which can be generated from sustainable alcohol feedstocks, are ideal for volume-limited aircraft such as UAVs.

California is Business Facilities' top-ranked state among Cybersecurity Jobs Leaders and New Yorkheads the leaderboard in Unmanned Aerial Systems (Drones), two new high-tech rankings categories appearing in the magazine's 14th Annual Rankings Report, released today.

A high-altitude unmanned-aerial-vehicle prototype, powered by solar panels and batteries, performs functions commonly attributed to spacecraft flying in low Earth orbits.

On a recent visit to the Southwest Airlines headquarters in Dallas, I got to fly a Boeing 737. Or, at least, I got as close as someone who is not a licensed commercial pilot can: I sat at the controls of a multimillion-dollar simulator and learned how to "land" at La Guardia Airport in New York City.

Alamosa resident and Sargent High School graduate Leighton Burt is part of drone research that could make a difference in managing fires like the Spring Fire that devastated so much of the eastern San Luis Valley this summer.

A UK government backed drone innovation project that's exploring how unmanned aerial vehicles could benefit cities — including for use-cases such as medical delivery, traffic incident response, fire response and construction and regeneration — has reported early learnings from the first phase of the project.

North Dakota State University has acquired a drone that will soon be tested for its ability to accurately spray herbicides autonomously.

The impact drones are having in the surveying & mapping sector is arguably more significant than anywhere else.

A bill introduced in the US House on July 17 by Reps. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) and Steve Chabot (R-Ohio) would provide the Departments of Homeland Security and Justice authorities to protect buildings and people from threatening unmanned aerial vehicles.

Boeing says it's aiming to create a traffic management system for drones that makes use of artificial intelligence, blockchain technology — and one of the companies in its investment portfolio.

Civil unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are attracting record levels of venture capital and promise to be the most dynamic growth sector of the world aerospace industry this decade, reports Teal Group—an aerospace and defense market analysis firm based in Fairfax, Virginia.

The agriculture industry has increasingly gravitated toward unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in recent years, as drones and sophisticated imaging software can affordably provide farmers with the data they need to maximize crop yields and reduce costs wherever possible.

Commercial Unmanned Aerial Systems research report is a professional and in-depth study on the current state of the Seed industry. This research report gives an overview of global Seed industries by analysing various key segments of this market based on the product types, application, end-to-end industries and industry scenario.

James Morton is an FAA-licensed commercial drone operator who runs his own aerial imagery business. And he thinks he knows why there's been an uptick in illegal drone activity over the area's Navy installations the last couple of years.

Police departments across the country are increasingly looking toward unmanned aerial vehicles as logical, affordable tools to fight crime.
