In this week's episode of Weekly Wings, Paul Rossi and Terry Neff delve into a variety of exciting developments in drone technology, autonomous systems, and advanced air mobility. The episode kicks off with the Spray Hawk, an automated agricultural helicopter developed by Rotor Technologies and AG Nav. The hosts discuss its potential to revolutionize aerial applications with cutting-edge navigation software, obstacle detection systems, and autonomous flight capabilities - https://dronelife.com/2024/11/19/rotor-technologies-and-ag-nav-announce-partnership-to-automate-aerial-applications-with-sprayhawk-helicopter/
Next, they explore the fascinating neuromorphic camera, a sensor inspired by the human eye that enables drones to navigate in GPS-denied environments by detecting changes in light. This groundbreaking technology could transform operations in both civilian and defense sectors, especially in areas with unreliable GPS signals - https://spectrum.ieee.org/drone-gps-alternatives and https://www.northropgrumman.com/what-we-do/digital-transformation/neuromorphic-cameras-provide-a-vision-of-the-future
The conversation shifts to drone light shows, with a focus on SPH Engineering’s advanced software that simplifies drone choreography. The hosts examine how accessible technology is fueling creativity in aerial entertainment, including a stunning show celebrating AC Milan's anniversary in Dubai - https://dronelife.com/2024/11/22/cyberdrone-illuminates-dubai-sky-with-drones-celebrating-ac-milans-125th-anniversary/ and https://dronelife.com/2024/11/20/drone-show-creator-by-sph-engineering-revolutionizing-aerial-entertainment-for-creatives-everywhere/
The military’s short-range reconnaissance program also takes center stage, as Red Cat Holdings thermal imaging-equipped Black Widow drones are selected for the U.S. Army’s latest acquisition. The hosts discuss the implications of deploying nearly 6,000 drones for defense operations - https://dronelife.com/2024/11/20/teledyne-flir-selected-for-red-cats-black-widow-us-army-srr-program/
On the regulatory front, Carbonix’s Volanti achieves FAA approval for nationwide BVLOS operations. This milestone enables long-range fixed-wing drones to perform precision tasks across the U.S., highlighting advancements in drone integration into airspace - https://dronelife.com/2024/11/20/carbonix-volanti-achieves-faa-bvlos-approval-pioneering-long-range-fixed-wing-uav-operations-in-the-us/
The episode wraps up with updates on EVTOL technology, as SkyDrive and SAI Flight collaborate to establish electric air taxi routes in South Carolina. The hosts discuss how this partnership represents a step forward in urban air mobility and the future of pilotless transportation - https://dronelife.com/2024/11/21/skydrive-and-sai-flight-collaborate-on-electric-air-taxi-routes-in-south-carolina/ and
