Remotely Piloted Systems

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!!

A collaboration between Bee Innovative, an Australian startup company, and the University of North Dakota's UAS program will use drones to track bees. The technology has been used successfully by Australian farmers to increase crop yields.
Tyler Kacerek's insight:
Tracking bees and aiding in increasing their efficiency helps us as well as the bees.  With 30% of the worlds food supply coming from pollinated crops, this is a great advancement.
