Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS West) for DoD and Government Virtual Conference - February 10-12, 2021
TORRANCE, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, January 5, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- This outstanding conference brings together the key experts and critical organizations that will shape the development of future Unmanned Aircraft systems. The creation and development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has provided a valuable opportunity to develop tasks such as search and rescue (SAR), surveillance, reconnaissance, inspection, patrolling, hazardous materials detection, among many other tasks. Particularly in military scenarios, the danger is more significant, which motivates the use of UAVs to perform certain missions, since its use promotes the safeguard of human lives. Attendees will obtain invaluable information on the emerging opportunities in the Military, Government, Commercial and Civil Markets found nowhere else. Themes include:
-DoD UAS Joint Program Updates, Emerging Sensor Capabilities & Testing
-Hands-on User Perspectives on UAS Training
-AI & Autonomy R&D
-Emerging Major UAV Program Weaponization Updates and Platforms
-Counter UAS Emerging Technologies & Policies
-sUAS & Nano System Innovations and Payloads
-Civil and Commercial Drone Platforms, Payloads Imaging Opportunities
-Latest FAA Air Traffic Integration Programs Status Updates
-UAS Swarming MUM-T Capabilities
-GOGO vs. COCO Decision Making Capabilities
