The connectivity platform of choice for UAVs – Ethernet
Ethernet has become the connectivity platform of choice for military unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system designers. Fixed- and rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are employed extensively by the military for reconnaissance, search and rescue, counterterrorism, and combat. UAVs function in missions where it is too dangerous, too difficult, or too demanding to send a pilot, […]
Open Systems: Promoting Rapid Deployment of New Innovations in the UAS Market
As we know, open standards and platforms are becoming a top priority for the military branches as it attempts to implement technologies with more rapid innovation cycles. For the US this is an absolute necessity to keep up with or stay ahead of foreign threats. Last year, officials at DARPA issued a broad agency announcement […]
