Unmanned Aircraft SystemsUpdateERAU-Worldwide Webinar SeriesOctober 13th, 2016
Dr. Brent Terwilliger, Stefan Kleinke, and David Thirtyacre
• What is it?– UAS, UAVs, RPAs – Drones– RC aircraft models– System of systems
• Where did it come from?• How has it changed?– Not just for tactical– Technology development ->
innovation– Widespread availability
(affordable)– Increasing education
UAS Technology
Tactical to Civilian Transition
• Civilian interest grew as technology matured
• Military UAS inspired innovation in civilian aircraft modeling field
• Hobbyist community grown Increased availability ARF, RTF, and BNF COTS are affordable Decreased complexity
Tactical to Civilian Transition
• Military Technology– Transformational – Available to general public
• Civilian sUAS platforms– Affect everyday citizens – Wide-scale industry impact
• Used in number of areas– Inspection– Aerial filming– Agriculture
• Accessibility/customizable• Economically feasibility– Academic institutions – Businesses
• Software and drivers -> open source– Allows user modification– Reduces cost-overhead– Spreads effort across larger population
• Contributors Hobbyists (RC aircraft modeling) DIY community Crowdsourcing and funding
Tactical to Civilian Transition
• Contribution should not be underestimated – Hobby -> “Prosumer”– Novel solutions/distribute cost
• Crowdsourcing proven to Identify novel new concepts Develop further capabilities/performance
• Example –> ArduPilot• Results vary
– Rely on trial and error– Numerous standardized alternative processes
Tactical to Civilian Transition
Industries Supported• Service providers
Communications (e.g., Facebook and Google) Aviation services Training and education Consultation
• Industries Defense Agricultural Resource exploration Filming Real estate Insurance Marketing Communications Emergency response Construction Government
• Precision Agriculture– Data capture (on demand inspection)– Application (aerial spraying)
• Public Safety and Services– Emergency/disaster response– Mapping, surveying, and inspection– Security and law enforcement
• Aerial Photography• Cargo Delivery/Transport• Communications• Conservation and Wildlife• Weather Monitoring• Technology Development• Research
Applications
sUAS Designs• Purpose: achieve controllable and sustained unmanned flight
in support of a specific application– sUAS not limited by onboard support elements– Size, weight, and complexity can be significantly reduced
• Common Configurations– Fixed-wing– VTOL– Hybrids– Electric– Internal Combustion
UAS Regulatory Change• Rapid civilian UAS growth
Potential impact UAS on National Airspace System Realized need for control and regulation
• Regulatory steps taken FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 (Public Law
112-095) Certificates of Waiver or Authorization (COA)/Section
333 Petition for (Grant of) Exemption Designation of six UAS Test Sites Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) for the
Operation and Certification of sUAS Presidential Memorandum Designation of UAS Center of Excellence (ASSURE) AC 91-57a (2015) UAS Registration Requirements Part 107 –operation and certification of sUAS (Aug 2016) Wide-scale Integration of UAS into Global Airspace
• AC 91-57a (2015)– Recreational/education use– N/A for commercial operations
• UAS Registration
• FAA Part 107 certification and operation of sUAS– 55lbs with N-number– Limited ops: VLOS, daylight, <100mph,
<400ftAGL, class G (B-E requires ATC) – Operator to pass knowledge exam (17yrs and
older, recurrent every 24mo, register with TSA)
• Other UAS approvals– Certificate of Waiver or Authorization (COA)– Section 333 Exemption– Special Airworthiness Certificate (SAC)
UAS Regulations/Laws
• UAS Growth– Extend coverage and capabilities– Lower risk and cost– Leverage Knowledge, Skills, Abilities (KSA)s– Entrepreneurial, manufacturing, and business
development
• Support Market– Service, support, and maintenance– Training and education– Data capture and management
• Technology Transfer– General/Business Aviation– UTM/SAA technology– Fuel/engine management systems
Business Opportunities
• FAA UAS Center of Excellence (ASSURE)-Core
• Numerous UAS-specific pursuits – Aerial Robotics Virtual Laboratory – Small UAS Consumer Guide – UAS application analysis framework and datab
ase
• Peer-reviewed pubs and presentations– AUVSI XPonential– IITSEC– Unmanned Systems Canada– Journal of Unmanned Vehicle Systems International– International Conference on Control, Robotics, and
Cybernetics– International Conference on Applied Human
Factors and Ergonomics – Human-Computer Interaction International
ERAU UAS
• Significant part of sustained UAS growth• Building experience– Under inherent pressures – Gain critical insight– Increase familiarity– Understand what sUAS can/cannot do
– Exhibit general flight dynamics, practice of maneuvers, and development of motor skills
– Available as free/open-source, limited demonstration, or paid options
• Use highly recommended
Modeling and Simulation
• Market and opportunities significantly expanding– Business Development– Analysis, Development, and
Engineering– Assembly/Technician Positions– Support– Management– Operations (including
operators/pilots)
• Opportunities growing: 2016 ERAU-Worldwide Unmanned Systems Related Career Opportunities report
Career Opportunities
• Free public resource (download)• Evaluate consumer multirotor sUAS
– Novice Suitability– Total System Performance– Cost-effectiveness
• Define standard for comparison– Quantitative – Qualitative
• Recently developed into web-resource: http://uasguide.erau.edu/
• Operational Test Plan
