Sighted systems can capture voluminous amount of private and personal videos, which exposes the users to risk. Researchers have developed tech that can allow robots to complete their tasks, while making the images incomprehensible to humans. The robots just need to recognise certain patterns, and can work just as …

MILL CREEK – Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) staff will fly drones over known locations of swan and goose flocks in Skagit, Snohomish, and Whatcom counties to assess the technology’s utility in surveying abundant waterfowl. Flights may take place from December 2023 through May 2024. WDFW staff with Federal Aviation Administration …

Dubbed “ornithopters,” the drones consist of a set of flapping wings, are powered by mechanical propellers, and are designed after the way that birds fly. The drones are made from parts of dead birds. Instead of only using synthetic materials to construct drones, researchers think the new results can be …

Aerodynamic, efficient anemometer uses smart materials to measure wind speed, direction A team of researchers at the Ohio State University has designed a smart wind sensor that could one day be used on drones and other small, autonomous aircraft, which are poised to become fixtures of daily life. As …

University of Zurich researchers have developed technology that will enable drones to detect and avoid other fast-moving objects in as little as 3.5 milliseconds using special event cameras and newly developed algorithms. The reaction time makes the aircraft “nearly” as reliable as human pilots and is directed at beyond visual …

STILLWATER, Okla. (KFOR) – Oklahoma State University’s drone program now has multimillion-dollar backing from the National Science Foundation. OSU researchers He Bai, Rushikesh Kamalapurkar, Jamey Jacob and Matt Vance and former faculty member Balaji Jayaraman received a $1.49 million grant from the foundation. The grant is part of the foundation’s …

KINGSTON, R.I. (CBS) – Researchers at the University of Rhode Island are testing cutting-edge technology for the TSA. CBS This Morning looked at their efforts to come up with new ways to detect and stop explosives popular with terrorists. One of the new tech items is called a “digital dog …

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Researchers at the University of New Mexico have come up with a new high tech way to move people and cargo more safely. It’s not your average drone. “It has four sensors on it, the main one is this laser,” says Roya Nasimi. Researchers at UNM …
