AeroVironment Inc., a Monrovia-based maker of unmanned aircraft systems, recently unveiled the Snipe Nano Quad. The miniature drone is about the size of a cell phone. AV got a contract from the U.S. Department of Defense to deliver 30 Snipe systems.

At the Springfield Beckley Municipal Airport crews will begin installing a new kind of radar in June that will allow air traffic controllers to see a combination of planes and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The Air Force and the State of Ohio are footing the $5 million radar bill in first-of-its-kind testing that both parties hope will lead to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval for beyond line of sight flight.

More than 400 companies from around the states, and the world, showed up in Florida last week to showcase their innovations during the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference. Their goal was to compete for some of those billions that U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) spends each year. 

The FAA's drone database hit a major snag this week, courtesy of a U.S. Court of Appeals ruling. The D.C.-based court sided with drone hobbyist John Taylor, who argued that the Federal Aviation Administration doesn't have jurisdiction over what the law classifies as model aircraft. The court argued that the drone registration database violates 2012's FAA Modernization and Reform Act.

The Federal Aviation Administration May 22 will host a meeting of law enforcement officials, drone manufacturers and others as it moves to address public safety concerns around commercial drone flights over people, sources familiar with the matter told Bloomberg BNA.

According to his letter to GPS World, Tony Murfin from GNSS Aerospace said the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International's annual Xponential show, which took place May 8-11 in Dallas, Texas, seemed to be at least as large as last year's in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was one of among more than 7,000 attendees and 650 exhibitors.

The disruptive economics of unmanned vehicles are taking hold. Here's how to think about the drone economy and your place in it.

Russia is working toward developing artificial intelligence for unmanned aerial vehicles that could one day be unified to form "swarms of drones," the company responsible for harnessing the technology said recently.

A student at the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design (MIAD) has designed an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) that uses high-tech sensors to help keep children with special needs, such as autism, safe. According to MIAD, the technology is described as an "assistive, artificially intelligent drone companion."

nmanned aircraft systems, known as drones or UAS, could be an important tool in boosting agricultural production to accommodate a roughly 30 percent global population increase to 9 billion people by 2050.
That was the message delivered by Bob Avant at the 2017 Texas UAS Summit May 10 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas.

Unmanned Aerial Systems are without a doubt at the forefront of aerial innovation. As an emerging industry that is inherently fraught with risk, it should come as little surprise that the insurance market is quickly trying to capture and develop this promising new market.  One major carrier, Liberty Mutual, recently announced a joint venture with Acend, Inc. to launch a new drone insurance platform..

More than $20 million for research on unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) was included in an appropriations package that Congress passed and the president signed into law last week to fund the federal government through the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30.
