ICUAS'17
Date: Jun 13, 2017 6:00 am – Jun 16, 2017 5:00 pm
Location: Miami, FL
The 2017 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (ICUAS'17)
The 2017 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems, ICUAS'17, will be held in Miami, FL, on June 13-16. The conference venue is the Miami Marriott, Biscayne Bay hotel. The hotel is close to the Miami Arts, Wynwood and Design districts and just minutes from the Miami Beach Convention Center. It is the only marina-front downtown hotel with incredible bay views. ICUAS'17 is fully sponsored by the ICUAS Association, a non-profit organization. Information about the organization may be found at www.icuas.com.
ICUAS'17 is a four-day event. June 13 will be a Workshop/Tutorial day, followed by a three-day technical Conference on June 14-16. Judging from the interest ICUAS has drawn over the past years and its growth, ICUAS'17 is again expected to continue on the same path and attract the highest number of participants from academia, industry, federal and state agencies, government, the private sector, users, practitioners and engineers who wish to be affiliated with and contribute technically to this highly demanding and rapidly evolving and expanding field.
The theme of ICUAS'17 will focus on the very challenging and timely topic of networked unmanned systems. National and international organizations, agencies, industry, military and civilian authorities are working towards defining roadmaps of UAS expectations, technical requirements and standards that are prerequisite to their full utilization, as well as legal, policy and ethical issues. The next generation of UAS is expected to be used for a wide spectrum of civilian and public domain applications. Challenges to be faced and overcome include, among others, see-and-avoid systems, robust and fault-tolerant flight control systems, payloads, communications, levels of autonomy, manned-unmanned swarms, network-controlled swarms, as well as challenges related to policies, procedures, regulations, safety, risk analysis assessment, airworthiness, certification issues, operational constraints, standardization and frequency management, all of paramount importance, which, coupled with 'smart', 'environmentally friendly' cutting edge technologies will pave the way towards full integration of UAS with manned aviation and into the respective national airspace.
ICUAS'17 aims at bringing together different groups of qualified military and civilian representatives worldwide, organization representatives, funding agencies, industry and academia, to discuss the current state of UAS advances, and the roadmap to their full utilization in civilian and public domains. Special emphasis will be given to current and future research opportunities, and to 'what comes next' in terms of the essential technologies that need to be utilized to advance further UAS.
Topics of Interest
ICUAS'17 topics of interest include, but will not be be limited to:
- Airspace Control Integration See-and-avoid Systems
- Airspace Management Interoperability Security
- Airworthiness Levels of Safety Sensor Fusion
- Air Vehicle Operations Manned/Unmanned Aviation Simulation
- Autonomy Micro- and Mini- UAS Smart Sensors
- Biologically Inspired UAS Navigation Standardization
- Certification Networked UAS Swarms
- Control Architectures Payloads Training
- Energy Efficient UAS Path Planning UAS Applications
- Environmental Issues Regulations UAS Communications
- Fail-Safe Systems Reliability of UAS UAS Testbeds
- Frequency Management Risk Analysis UAS Transportation Management (UTM)
Unmanned system collaboration and coordination, formation control, validation and verification and unmanned system design for assured autonomy, are topics of great interest to ICUAS'17.
Through Keynote addresses and presentations, it is expected that the outcome of the Conference will be a clear understanding of what industry, military, civilian, national/international authorities need, and what are the crucial next steps that need to be completed before UAS are utilized in everyday life applications.
