4 Steps to Conquering the UAV Human Machine Interface



Join webinar leader, Keven Gambold, Squadron Leader, Royal Air Force (RAF) as he challenges the “accepted wisdom” within today’s UAV fields.

Participants will learn:

  • What future UAV designs will need to look like and what they will be capable of, including larger unmanned (Boeing 737) operations
  • Exclusive ‘out of the box’ design considerations from a UAV pilot and expert in Human Machine Interfaces (HMI)
  • What key issues of UAV regulation and licensing regulating agencies should address i.e., Commercial Pilot’s License
  • Why are industry leaders talking about Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) instead of UAVS?
  • What will happen in the post-Afghanistan climate when unmanned systems take on other missions?

    The pace of change within the field of Unmanned Aerial Systems is simply staggering. There are now over 260 UAV variants flying or in development from over 50 countries, with global investment estimated at US $6 Billion this year, rising to US $55 Billion by 2020.

    This paradigm shift will occur within ‘present to near-future’ timescales and we need to be actively planning to take advantage of these leaps in capability.

    “Computers will have the same processing power as the human brain by 2020. We are not prepared for what is coming."
