The overarching goal of this project is to develop new opportunities for basic and applied research. The work focuses not only on UAS technology (marine applications in particular) but also on the development of tools that will transform how research is conducted at sea. Recent tests with the prototype system have verified stability and key performance characteristics, with flight duration exceeding 20 mins and a top speed exceeding 30 knots. |
