At Intel, Mario Paniccia proved that silicon can transmit and receive data using light, thereby pioneering silicon photonics, which has applications in communications, AI, sensing, biomedical and beyond. He subsequently used...

While much of the buzz throughout the self-driven vehicle world has historically focused on robotaxis, sized for autonomously transporting one-to-four people along sporadic routes, our investigations have revealed that other...

Resilience in data communications is a key consideration for uncrewed systems, whether in the air, on the ground or in the water. Assurance of that resilience can be provided in a number of ways, from redundancy to mesh topologies to...

Although the general public may occasionally lack awareness of how ubiquitous UAVs may become in the future, those in the industry understand how dramatically autonomous aerial surveillance is changing the game of asset intelligence...

So it was that the 2026 Unmanned Systems Exhibition (UMEX) was the event’s largest edition yet, bringing together record numbers of exhibitors, innovations and interested customers into what has become cemented as the region’s leading platform...

The company H3X is an aerospace-focused e-powertrain developer and manufacturer, which was founded in 2020 primarily out of a desire to take on a challenge set (unofficially) by the US’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) in 2019...

Once, getting hold of the kinds of sensing, computing power and digitalised control systems necessary for uncrewed mobility (both on- and off-road) was a nightmare of cost and supply-chain barriers. Today, however, much of...

Serious manufacturers of certifiable uncrewed aircraft are growing relentlessly in number, not only thanks to defence industries expanding their activities in response to (hopefully) short-term conflicts, but also because of the upcoming...

As the collective uncrewed systems industry matures, from a predominant focus on technical development to increased capacity for manufacturing reliable and maintainable vehicles at scale, competition inevitably breeds increasingly...

As the name suggests, combat search and rescue (CSAR) is an inherently risky kind of mission for a helicopter. It involves flying over and landing in hostile or contested territory, most likely in a race against both time and an adversary alerted...
