BLACK HORNET PD-100 PRS
The Black Hornet Nano is a military micro unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by Prox Dynamics AS of Norway, and in use by the Norwegian and British Army.
The unit measures around 10 × 2.5 cm (4 × 1 in) and provides troops on the ground with local situational awareness. They are small enough to fit in one hand and weigh just over half an ounce (16 g, including batteries).
The little military drone only weights 16 grams. Mission durations of 15/20 minutes are mentioned in the The PD-100 is the first airborne and commercially available Personal Reconnaissance System. It provides end users with a highly mobile sensor system providing an immediate Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance capability.
Drones and their Increasing Number of ApplicationsJeffrey Funk
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze how drones are becoming economic feasible for an increasing number of applications as their costs fall. The costs of drones are falling as the costs of various ICs (controllers, GPS) and MEMS sensors rapidly fall, their performance rises (e.g., accuracy of GPS) and as the cost of carbon fibers fall at a somewhat slower pace than do ICs and MEMS. These falling costs are making drones economically feasible for a number of applications such as producing movies, TV reporting, surveillance, and delivery.

In the Slide, we have given a brief Introduction about the Drones and its emerging technology. The content provided would be really simple for the beginners to understand and gain a complete idea about the introduction to Drones or UAVs.
Drones are a different kind of new technology from what we’re used to. They offer something else: the conquest of physical space, the extension of society’s compass, the ability to be anywhere and see anything.
For the past few years, one of the most exciting class of gadgets on display has been drones. They got cheaper, lighter, and easier to use even as they became more powerful.
We believe 2015 is an important year for drones as they will change how brands interact with consumers in both advertising and events, and here's everything you need to know about the drone technology.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a Drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot on board. UAVs can be remote controlled aircraft (e.g. flown by a pilot at a ground control station) or can fly autonomously based on pre-programmed flight plans or more complex dynamic automation systems
A UAV is defined as being capable of controlled, sustained level flight and powered by a jet or reciprocating engine. In addition, a cruise missile can be considered to be a UAV, but is treated separately on the basis that the vehicle is the weapon.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are aircrafts that fly without any humans being onboard. They are either remotely piloted, or piloted by an onboard computer. This kind of aircrafts can be used in different military missions such as surveillance, reconnaissance, battle damage assessment, communications relay, minesweeping, hazardous substances detection and radar jamming. However they can be used in other than military missions like detection of hazardous objects on train rails and investigation of infected areas. Aircrafts that are able of hovering and vertical flying can also be used for indoor missions like counter terrorist operations

Use of UAS for Domestic Border Security Operations in the United States
Student no. 3
9 November 2019
The use of UAS and or UAV for ISR has been in existence since the 19th century.U.S CBP agency is no exception since it has various assets in its arsenal of ISR to protect the U.S borders, with one example being the use of UAS. The one safety concern for the public is the integration of UAS into the domestic airspace (Cho, 2014).
Summary
The CBP has an arsenal of ISR assets to use to protect our borders from fixed-wing aircraft like the Beechcraft King Air Series 200 and C-12C, Cessna C-206/210 and C-55 Citation, to rotary-wing aircraft like the Airbus AS350 A-Star, Bell UH-1H Huey II, Sikorsky UH-60, to marine vessels like 39-foot Interim Midnight Express, 33-foot SAFE Boat, a Tethered Aerostat Radar System, and UAS MQ-9B Predator along with small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) to name a few, but what has the public concerned is the unmanned aerial systems of the MQ-9B Predator and sUAS (Air and Marine Operations Assets, 2019). Since most of these assets are manned aircraft or vessels which are piloted from within, with the exception of the Tethered Aerostat which is stationary balloon, the MQ-9B Predator and sUAS are systems that are pilotless in the sense that the pilot is flying it form the ground far away from it. This leads to concerns of the safety aspects of flying this UAS along with other aircraft in the NAS.
Issue/Prob Statement
The CBP currently has a fleet of nine MQ-9 Predator B’s that are on regular surveillance missions looking for illegal activity crossing the Southern border (Bier & Feeney, 2018) The MQ-9B Predator, manufactured by General Atomics Aeronautical systems, is used for its vast operational capabilities, unique payload, mission flexibility, and that it can be fitted with new applications along with an excellent safety and performance record with other agencies (Unmanned Aircraft System, 2019).
Significance of Issue
The CBP have recently completed testing the use of sUAS and are currently implementing them for operational use in the field to complement their current inventory of manned and large UAS aircraft.The UTM still in its infancy of being tested and developed it brings up another safety issue with smaller unmanned aerial systems or vehicles being operated in the same airspace as low flying aircraft.
Significance of Issue
The United States, according to a CRS Report for Congress, has approximately 19,937.4 miles of International boundaries that the CBP covers on a day to day basis (Beaver, 2006). The extended range and endurance of these UASs may reduce the burdens on human resources at the borders. Like all other borders, the United States requires 24-hour surveillance of its borders on land and on our coastline.
Research and Development
The use of sUAS in the field in place of the large UAS MQ-9B Predator has given some additional adva ...

UAS- Unmanned Aircraft Systems Civil & Public Application_ Presentation
1.
2. 2
Scope
Unmanned Aircraft Systems - A new field for civil aerospace development and applications
The origin of this system
UAS - Unmanned Aircraft Systems
What does it mean?
What we are talking about?
Emerged at the earliest ages of aviation.
During the World War II were done a few tests.
For the last decades the system was developed only for
military proposes.
Possibilities:
Quick response
Low Risk (no crew inside)
Information and control on site …
Challenges: Reliable Equipment, All Weather Use, Regulation, Lower Cost …
Applications:
Search and Rescue Operations
Land & Sea Monitoring …
4. 4
An Unmanned Aircraft
is a pilotless aircraft
which is flown without a
pilot-in-command-on-
board.
Remotely and fully controlled from
another place (ground, another
aircraft or ship)
Programmed and fully autonomous
Other designations: Drone, RPV (remotely piloted vehicle), UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle or
unmanned air vehicle), UAV system and many others
The term Unmanned Aircraft System is now preferred by the sector
because it covers the flying vehicle itself and all the components
necessary to accomplish the mission objectives.
Introduction (II)
5. 5
Origin & History
The concept of pilotless aircraft is not new it started in mid 1800’s when Austrians
launched pilotless balloons (mounted with bombs) against the city of Venice.
The innovation of UAS has we see today started in the early 1900’s used to train target
practice - on the military field.
Later on the World War I there were some
trials with remote-controlled airplanes
Technology rush during the World War II
to train antiaircraft gunners and to fly
attack missions.
Specially the Nazi German produced and
used various UAV aircraft
Later on with the concerned about loosing pilots over hostile territory U.S.
started planning the use of unmanned flights for aerial reconnaissance,
intelligence and surveillance work
On the last decades the UAS as been used as a weapon
Production of geographic knowledge and surveillance,
target acquisition and missile launching.
6. 6
Potential Applications:
Ground Traffic Surveillance
Motorway Road Traffic Collision
Land and Sea Search and Rescue Missions
Fire Fighting
and many more…
Could we give this technology a better propose ?
For sure we will!
Source: Google pictures
7. 7
Potential Advantages & Benefits
Worldwide people are being innovative, creative and using their imagination
to capitalize on what “can” UAS offer
Mobile – easy do move, deploy, launch and recover
Inexpensive - compared to other means
Quick response – faster and safety
Absence of human risk - no crew inside
Reduce human life exposure – long, dull, dirty or
dangerous missions
High degree of controllability – from operational
centres
Control and information - on real time
….
Protection of the
environment
Noise abatement
Reduced fuel
consumption and CO2
emission
8. 8
Substitute or Complementary
Depending on the missions UAS could work
independently and they are costless and
even more efficient
After a forest fire the UAS could
work at night with thermic
sensors
Motorway accidents the traditional rescue
sources will provide better help. However the
UAS could operate also to assist the traffic
control and management
For starting first aid in case of
accidents traditional rescue
could operate faster
To help on Search & Rescue operation on
Land or sea UAS could get into places and
with details (zoom and time to look up) that
other means will not be able to.
In sea by the rocks
or in land on narrow
places
9. 9
Obstacles & Risks to UAS Development
Political Issues
No harmonised rules and standards –
absence of legal framework
Lack of training and licencing
requirements
Lack of airspace access
Common certification processes and
standards
Need to rely heavily on communication,
navigation & surveillance technologies
Ensure safety, efficiency, security,
reliability to integrate airspace
Flight operations must be transparent to
other airspace users and air traffic
controllers - Detect, Sense & Avoid
Source: Warmerdam, J., Buuren, G ten. (2010)
Technical Issues
Ensure safety under lost link condition -
safely terminate flight when loss of
control occurs!
