Russia Launches Largest Drone Assault on Ukraine Since War Began
Russia launched the largest aerial assault on Ukraine since the beginning of the war, targeting Kyiv and multiple regions with hundreds of drones and missiles over a two day period. According to Ukrainian officials, the attacks involved more than 1,500 drones and...
La marine suédoise recommanderait l’achat de quatre Frégates de défense et d’intervention à la France
En 2021, l’Administration suédoise du matériel de défense [Försvarets materielverk – FMV] attribua à Kockums [filiale de Saab] un contrat pour mener des études dans le cadre du programme «nouvelle génération de bâtiment de surface» [ou classe Luleå], lequel prévoyait...
Des technologies françaises dans un drone en première ligne en Ukraine : Safran et le turc Baykar s’associent pour développer des technologies de drones en commun
Le français Safran et le turc Baykar ont annoncé un partenariat pour co-développer des technologies d’imagerie, de navigation et de guidage d’armement de drones. Le droniste d’Istanbul va adapter les équipements d’observation optronique de Safran à son drone vedette,...
Surround and Tracking: An Innovative Multi-UAV Collaborative Search Approach for Maritime Rescue Under Imperfect Information
Highlights What are the main findings? For any given initial positions of UAVs, the deployment of virtual anchor points (VAPs) and the selection of search directions jointly determine the mission duration required for full coverage search. In dual-UAV scenarios,...
Explosives Found Near Crashed Ukrainian Drone in Lithuania, Officials Say
Explosives were discovered on Monday near the wreckage of a suspected Ukrainian military drone that crashed in Lithuania. The Lithuanian police stated that the materials are too dangerous to remove, so they will be disposed of by detonation at the site. The drone...
Edge-Friendly UAV Wildfire Smoke and Flame Detection Using Transfer Learning-Enhanced Lightweight Deep Learning Models
Edge computing on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) enables low-latency wildfire monitoring by performing visual inference onboard; however, practical deployment is constrained by limited labeled data and resource budgets that often preclude reliance on large GPU...
Drone gonfiabile marshmallow: la scommessa di Celeste Ecoflyers
Mentre gran parte del settore della logistica aerea punta su velivoli e droni sempre più veloci, pesanti e capaci di coprire distanze enormi con carichi massicci, c'è chi ha deciso di invertire totalmente la rotta con un progetto davvero fuori dal comune. La startup...
LUMEN: A Lightweight UAV Multi-Enhanced Network for PSD-Based RF Fingerprinting on Edge Devices
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) identification in edge environments requires both high classification accuracy and efficient real-time deployment on lightweight hardware. This study presents LUMEN, a Lightweight UAV Multi-Enhanced Network designed for...
Control-Certified Wireless Resource Allocation for Digital-Twin-Enabled UAV Swarms
Wireless resource allocation in digital-twin-enabled unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms must be both network-feasible and certifiably safe for closed-loop control. Existing packet-level or scalar-priority schedulers cannot meaningfully compare heterogeneous...
A 3D UAV Path Planning Algorithm Based on Bidirectional RRT* with Adaptive Directional Sampling and Cooperative Dual-Tree Expansion
UAV path planning in complex three-dimensional obstacle environments requires a balance between search efficiency and flight feasibility. However, existing RRT*-based methods often fail to satisfy this requirement, as their random sampling lacks directional guidance...
