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...
UAE Nuclear Power Plant Targeted by Drone Strike
A drone strike at the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant in the UAE caused a fire but did not affect safety or operations, according to Abu Dhabi officials. They did not assign blame for the attack, which comes amid stalled efforts to end the U. S.-Israeli war with Iran. The...
Autonomous Fault-Tolerant Cooperative Tracking and Obstacle Avoidance for UAV Swarm in Complex Maritime Environments
Highlights What are the main findings? A DMPC-SQP-based cooperative tracking framework for UAV swarm is proposed. In dense threat environments, it achieves a 93.4% QP feasibility rate and reduces the mean tracking error by 25.4% compared to fixed-altitude DMPC and by...
A Scanline-Based Sliding Window Filtering Method for UAV-Borne LiDAR Bathymetry Point Clouds
Highlights What are the main findings? A novel scanline-based sliding window filtering method is proposed for the denoising of UAV-borne LiDAR bathymetric point clouds, which can effectively separate noise while completely retaining detailed features of complex...
XTI Aerospace’s Drone Nerds business adds Agremo crop monitoring and field analytics platform to enterprise software portfolio
XTI Aerospace, Inc. ("XTI Aerospace," "XTI," or the "Company"), an aerospace and advanced technology platform and parent company of Drone Nerds, LLC, ("Drone Nerds"), a leading drone solutions platform serving commercial, enterprise and government customers, announced...
Improved welding of conformal channels
The invention provides, amongst other aspects, a device comprising a substrate; a wall which is welded onto the substrate thereby defining a channel; and a covering layer extending over the substrate and covering at least the wall, wherein the wall is prefabricated,...
Framatome veut utiliser l’impression 3D pour les futures centrales nucléaires
De plus en plus répandue, la fabrication additive promet de révolutionner des pans entiers de l’industrie. Framatome en a pris conscience très tôt et vient d’ouvrir une usine dédiée, concrétisant ainsi près de 15 ans de recherche et développement. Cette nouvelle usine...
