As a result, this Project interlaces three different disciplines (vision, machine learning and cyber security) to achieve the overall goal of creating a new generation of autonomous drones that can safely land indoors or outdoors if problems arise with their navigational and sensory systems, whether due to accident, technical failure, or attack. In addition, the Project aims to provide these drones with important safety features such as automated object/human in-motion avoidance capabilities that support the objectives of regulations that are either currently in effect, or are being drafted for this purpose., description french : Atterrissage automatique des systèmes d’aéronef sans pilote (cas d’utilisation de drones dotés de systèmes d’atterrissage automatique), expected results english : In the short term, anticipated outcomes will be strengthened collaborations across industry, academia, and government to support research excellence. In the medium term, anticipated outcomes will be the development of new and potentially disruptive technologies with collaborators. In the long term, find collaborative solutions to public policy challenges and create stronger innovation systems., expected results french : À court terme, les résultats prévus seront des collaborations renforcées entre l'industrie, le milieu universitaire et le gouvernement pour soutenir l'excellence en recherche. À moyen terme, les résultats attendus seront le développement de nouvelles technologies potentiellement perturbatrices avec des collaborateurs. À long terme, trouver des solutions collaboratives aux défis des politiques publiques et créer des systèmes d'innovation plus solides., additional information english : This agreement has been amended 2 time(s).
