The confluence of machine intelligence and aeronautics is the next great revolution in air transportation. In attempting to introduce an entirely new approach to vehicle management into the world’s safest transportation system, the Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) industry must merge two entirely different cultures: 1) Aviation safety-based and inherently risk averse2) Market-driven and experiment-based — while managing performance an...

From its creation in 1963, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) has organized conferences to serve the aerospace profession as part of its core mission. Spanning over 70 technical discipline areas, AIAA’s conferences provide scientists, engineers, and technologists the opportunity to present and disseminate their work in structured technical paper and poster sessions, learn about new technologies and advances fro...

The AIAA Missile Sciences Conference focuses on the technology and science as applied to missile system and sub-system design, from concept development to operational fielding and testing. The conference provides participants with a classified forum to communicate to a unique audience of peers who are involved in the detailed implementation of weapon system design and test.
