A Technology Survey Of Emergency Recovery And Flight Termination Systems For Uas, Richard Stansbury, Wesley Tanis, Timothy Wilson
A Technology Survey Of Emergency Recovery And Flight Termination Systems For Uas, Richard Stansbury, Wesley Tanis, Timothy Wilson
Richard Stansbury
For safe flight in the National Airspace System (NAS), either under the current interim rules or under anticipated longer-term regulatory guidelines facilitating unmanned aircraft system (UAS) access to the NAS, the UAS must incorporate technologies and flight procedures to ensure that neither people nor property in the air, on the ground, or on or in the water are endangered by the failure of an onboard component, by inappropriate unmanned aircraft (UA) response to pilot commands, or by inadvertent entry by the UA into prohibited airspace. The aircraft must be equipped with emergency recovery (ER) procedures and technologies that ensure that …

Unlocking The Mysteries Of Flight: From The Top Down, Juan Merkt
Unlocking The Mysteries Of Flight: From The Top Down, Juan Merkt
Juan R. Merkt
Traditionally, principles of flight are taught from the bottom-up. That is, we start by examining underlying causes (properties of air) and later move up to top consequences (aircraft performance). This traditional approach is analogous to that used by airplane designers and is most obvious in theory of flight textbooks for pilots. The problem with a bottom-up approach is that it introduces basic concepts as isolated “parts” without providing a “big picture” context. This can lead to poor understanding among student pilots. I suggest an opposite approach. Rather than starting with the underlying causes of flight, we can unravel basic principles …

Verification Of Video Frame Latency Telemetry For Uav Systems Using A Secondary Optical Method, Sam B. Siewert
Verification Of Video Frame Latency Telemetry For Uav Systems Using A Secondary Optical Method, Sam B. Siewert
Sam B. Siewert
This paper presents preliminary work and a prototype computer vision optical method for latency measurement for an UAS (Uninhabited Aerial System) digital video capture, encode, transport, decode, and presentation subsystem. Challenges in this type of latency measurement include a no-touch policy for the camera and encoder as well as the decoder and player because the methods developed must not interfere with the system under test. The goal is to measure the true latency of displayed frames compared to observed scenes (and targets in those scenes) and provide an indication of latency to operators that can be verified and compared to …

Creating Low-Cost ‘Balloonsats’ For Stem Education With 3d Printing, Jeremy Straub
Creating Low-Cost ‘Balloonsats’ For Stem Education With 3d Printing, Jeremy Straub
Jeremy Straub
A new technology, known as 3D printing, allows the rapid fabrication of plastic structures of virtually any configuration. These structures are light-weight, durable and inexpensive. This paper considers the utility of utilizing 3D printing to create enclosures for ‘BalloonSats’ – small, low-cost spacecraft analog which can be utilized by students to understand space engineering, conduct near-space science (e.g., physics, biological and other experiments) and touch the edge of space.
The utility of 3D printed structures for use in the near-space low-temperature and low-pressure environment is considered. This analysis falls into four key areas. First, the ability of the structures to …
A Perching Landing Gear For A Quadcopter, Elsa Culler, Gray Thomas, Christopher Lee
A Perching Landing Gear For A Quadcopter, Elsa Culler, Gray Thomas, Christopher Lee
Christopher Lee
The design, fabrication, and testing of two prototypes of a landing gear mechanism that would allow a quadcopter to grasp and perch upon a branch-like structure are presented. The prototypes are based upon a snapping-claw mechanism that is triggered on the impact of landing. A complaint claw, fabricated using shape deposition manufacturing techniques, can conform to various shapes and contours of perching structures. Results from flight tests with a commercial off-the-shelf quadcopter and zip line tests are presented which demonstrate the performance of the mechanism.
Flight Attendant/Pilot Communication, In A Post 9/11 Environment: Viewed From Both Sides Of The Fortress Door"., Lori Brown
Lori J. Brown
Reports and a recent global survey (Brown, et al., 2010) reported that out of 271 pilots and flight attendants, 13% indicated a discrete wireless communication device would not enhance safety, 18% indicate a slight effect, 33% indicated a device may somewhat enhance safety, and 21% indicated the device would greatly enhance safety. ...
