How Urban Air Mobility is getting ready for passengers: the NTU Singapore case
Singapore’s NTU flew its eVTOL prototypes in Germany. See what it means for urban air mobility, and why safety starts in flight control.
The first light unmanned aircraft congress (ALNT 2013) will take place on October 30-31 in Teruel (Spain). David Benavente, founder at Embention, will lecture about advanced systems for navigation, guidance, and control, such as those implemented in Veronte Autopilot 1x for UAV and drone control, manufactured by Embention. It will take place on Wednesday 30th at 10:45am.
ALNT 2013 congress
This first ALNT 2013 congress aims to boost national research, share experiences in the civil and military industries, and demonstrate the latest trends in the aerospace sector in Spain. This brings with it a full program formed by the participation of 27 prominent speakers from the university environment, with the participation of the Universities of Sevilla, Deusto, or the Technical University of Madrid. In addition, members of the Advanced Aerospace Technology Center of Andalucia, the Meteorological Agency, and the Ministry of Defense will assist with the event, together with business representatives that manufacture and develop products in this sector.
During the ALNT 2013 it will be known for the latest technological innovations in design together with its use with biological purposes or for inspections of power lines and safety issues, as well as its commercial uses. During these days, it will explain and discuss the current rules and limitations of use for light unmanned aircraft, which will be very useful to both the development companies and users of these systems.
On the last day the aerial demonstrations and the Spanish Association of UNmanned Aircraft Systems (AERPAS) will be presented. That arises in order to exercise research support and national entrepreneurial boost, it will provide appropriate mechanisms for representing and promoting the sector.
At the ALNT 2013 congress were discussed the following topics:
- National technological landscape.
- Multiple UAV systems: methods, technologies, and applications.
- Vision onboard the UAVs.
- Services, applications and security of drones.
- Possibilities of support from the State Meteorological Agency to the Sector.
- Legal system of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.
