A group of companies last month staged a mock murder in Nevada to demonstrate the value of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in crime scene investigation.

Big changes are in store for the country's more than 1 million registered drone users, most of whom fly the unmanned aerial systems as a hobby.

Navy engineers invented a triple redundancy solution for precise position, navigation and timing (PNT) in a low cost, size, weight, and power (c-SWAP) solution. GPS is accurate to a few meters, but the new Time-Space-Position-Information (TSPI) technology, using differential corrections, could be accurate to within a few centimeters.

The invention provides the Navy with a novel approach for TSPI in several areas, including GPS denied environments, highly dynamic aircraft, Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs), and highly-dynamic guided weapons. This new technology could be a game-changer by enabling a more accurate, reliable, cost-effective addition to the use of GPS for some manned and unmanned systems flight testing and their integration into NextGen.

Now, here's a perspective that you don't see too often: "the benefits of using drones at airports." Almost always when we hear the words drone and airport in the same sentence it is a sure sign of trouble. However, the use of drones can also benefit an airport. Here's how.

Echodyne Corp. of Kirkland, Washington, announced that its EchoGuard security radar has been selected by Black Sage Technologies Inc. as the preferred radar sensor for mid-range C-UAS security solutions.

Almost every town and city in the world is working on a tight budget – but drones are proving to be one of the best investments that a community can make to assist their fire and emergency services departments.

Researchers in Australia developed a fast, reliable way to count koalas using drones: by flying unmanned aerial vehicles equipped with infrared imaging,

Embry-Riddle's Dr. Kristy Kiernan, program chair for the Master of Science in Unmanned Systems, focuses on bringing together the safety culture of aviation and the "innovation culture" of drones, particularly given the promise of drones to benefit society by improving public safety. Recently on Forbes.com, she explored the risks that drones could pose to air travel.

DroneSeed—a drone company that uses drone swarms to accelerate reforestation by planting and protecting trees—is in the news again, this time with plans to help restore rangelands affected by invasive species in Oregon.

The House passed legislation February 26 promoting the use of drones and other advanced technology to improve government response to wildfires.

On 15 February 2019, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) publicly announced the State of Nevada as an award recipient for the Unmanned Aircraft Systems Traffic Management (UTM) Technical Capability Level (TCL) 4 operation. 

Boeing Australia on Wednesday announced plans to make a jet drone with artificial intelligence that can act as a "loyal wingman" for manned jet fighters.

DroneSeed has signed a contract with The Nature Conservancy to support the replanting of native species with advanced technologies in sagebrush habitat, the company announced on 20 February. The contract will see the use of UAS swarms to restore the Oregon rangelands affected by invasive species and re-seed native plants and endangered species, such as the sage-grouse.

In an effort to give professional UAS operators improved control, safety, and security for high-stakes missions, DJI unveiled new hardware and software tools on Thursday, Feb. 21.

As the DJI Mavic 2 Zoom was flying over his house, the 26-year-old Gerard Chasteen allegedly got his shotgun and shot the drone out of the sky, according to police. The Long Island man fired off three shots at the drone that was flying around the neighborhood in search of a missing dog.

The future of transportation is autonomous. Self-driving vehicles and unmanned air taxis have the potential to create a world in which the computer is literally in the driver's seat. Flying vehicles may sound like a Jetsonian, "pie in the sky" concept, but it's a reality that's coming to Utah within the coming decade. 

Swiss drone manufacturer Wingtra is teaming up with distributor RDO Equipmentto roll out a certified repair center servicing the company's vertical-takeoff-and-landing drone solutions.

Op-Ed: If you need it quickly and cheaply, call a drone. They are the new frontier of delivery.

They will be heavier than the lightweight models that previously have hit people on the ground. A host of questions remain unanswered. Should drones themselves be required to carry safety features such as sensors or parachutes? Are Americans willing to endure drone accidents in exchange for more convenience and freedom, as they do with automobiles?
