Embention is jointly involved with IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) in the “Drones Against Tsetse” project, a project for the control of tsetse fly population in Africa. In a first phase, the project is focused on the control of the plague in Ethiopia, willing to soon act in other affected areas in Africa. This project […]
Nowadays, there is a great variety of autonomous system types. Technological advances in the field of unmanned vehicles are not limited only to UAVs, more commonly known as drones, but they are also increasing in the field of Unmanned Ground Vehicles or UGV, as well as surface (aquatic) ones, also known as USV. Sector is […]
Drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), are innovating traditional topography, getting a large relevance as cutting-edge technology. Drones offer high-accuracy 3D point clouds, vectorial cartography blueprints, metric orthophotography, and terrain photographs. With these, it is possible to develop rigorous cartographic works, replacing detection devices and traditional 3D measuring instruments. The most frequent objective of topography […]
One of the less known autonomous aerial platforms are unmanned blimps and zeppelins. In the twentieth century, there was a rise of this kind of aircraft, but some important accidents occurred because of the hydrogen carried for lifting up the platform. It led to great media coverage and the consequent disrepute of this method of […]
Nowadays, a large number of professional UAS users are forced to use an SDK (Software Development Kit) to obtain maximum performance and functionality on their aircraft or unmanned system, having software edition tools for programming in the system the functionalities required for their specific application. However, not all users have the necessary skills or company […]
The concept of reliability and safety in UAVs is crucial. Sometimes, operations with unmanned aircraft require the UAV to perform a “go home” maneuver with either autonomous or manual activation. Main causes for requiring this maneuver are: operator work overload due to managing multiple UAVs at the same time, an emergency, environmental or external to […]
One of the most popularized professional application of drones (UAV / UAS) is the idea of several logistics companies to use these for courier delivery. But it is just one of their capabilities, as they are not limited exclusively to this purpose, are protect us or even save lives with emergency drones reveals some potential […]
In addition to UAVs, more commonly known as drones, there are other types of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) with several layouts and possibilities. Being the guided parafoils or UPP key platforms for a wide range of applications. On these platforms, it is possible to control the flight path by controlling the position of the “aileron” […]
