This is a media curation page for the PIRatE Lab's AARR Program. We are developing practical, low cost programs to monitor resources in our coastal zone (the land near the ocean and the ocean near the land) with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs aka "drones") overhead and subtidal Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) . Enjoy!!
Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), have been around since the early 1900s. Originally used for military operations, they became more widely used after about 2010 when electronic technology got smaller, cheaper an
For the third time in the past month, an owner of an unmanned drone has pled guilty to flying it in Yellowstone National Park, this time over crowds in the Midway Geyser Basin and close to bison.
Unmanned aerial vehicles or drones offer area scientists new possibilities for research in otherwise hard-to-reach areas and difficult marine environments.
Antonella T Cammarota's insight:
Here's some pretty awesome stuff they are doing at Virginia Tech.
Mines without miners? Drones and robots mining the natural resources of our planet, more safely, quickly, efficiently, and profitably than ever before.
We describe the design and implementation of a Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC) System for fixed wing Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This system al
Headwall Photonics, Inc., a provider of spectral imaging solutions, has announced that it has introduced a new data processing unit specifically designed
Antonella T Cammarota's insight:
Weights only 1.4 pounds and is the industry's only platform for fusing hyperspectral sensing data with other sensor payloads.
The 3-D glasses teach scientists about the insect's depth perception and could ultimately lead to better vision in robots.
Rebecca Smith-Gridley's insight:
Along with our 360 degree cameras, this 3-D technology could help us roam and provide detailed images for research from every direction, while using our RPSs, such as underwater ROV exploration after a major catastrophe..
