AUVSI member company Iris Automation will host a free webinar titled “The Emerging Technologies Driving UAS Air Safety Towards BVLOS” March 10th at 3:00 – 4:00 pm EST.
Jon Damush, CEO of Iris Automation, will discuss improving the scale and efficiency of drone operations, given their status as some of the most sought-after advantages of flying BVLOS. It is one of the boundaries yet to be fully unlocked by the industry – and for good measure. It’s the one that poses the most risk to safety. Flying beyond line of sight is much more than just being able to see the drone, it’s about the human being “on” instead of “in” the loop – relying solely on the drone and its sensor capabilities to secure the safety of other aircraft in the airspace and the people and property below. That shift is where the challenge has emerged for the industry as regulators expect safety systems to meet certain performance standards.
In this webinar we’ll explore emerging solutions and the importance of proven and effective technologies that ultimately need to be practical for the drone and overall mission. We will also breakdown the major air risks and what level of detection is necessary for an appropriate avoidance action.
