NUAIR’s Post

I had the honor of spending the past two days with GENIUS NY at their founder’s retreat, some takeaways: - upstate NY is objectively the furthest along of any UAS related #economicdevelopment or #accelerator program in the country. They are also the most cohesive/collavorative. - many companies go here to help refine their products/solutions, but the #mentorship is top notch. Folks like Marc Viggiano / Ken Stewart / craig marcinkowski sharing their sage wisdom with younger founders, with successful alumni like AVSS | Drone Parachute Recovery Systems & Guided Delivery Systems and ResilienX providing a great perspective on the current market. - #technical #standards guide the industry, but alas there is a MASSIVE KNOWLEDGE GAP between policy folks and technologists/the folks making the tech. This will not change anytime soon ^ - too many of us (myself included) focus on sharing the wins, but tbh it’s the #failures that teach you the most. We rarely talk openly about our failures, and I think that needs to change. - #modular #hardware and #software will win. So many well capitalized companies are BURNING CASH attempting to build their own tech stack. Those who build only what they should will be able to provide the lean and effective solutions customers want. Example: #DFR platforms are currently way too ‘porky’ and offering too many superfluous features, and adding complexity to their own tech stack. Hell, you have one team of folks (who have never done computer vision before), doing #autonomy Similar challenges with #dronedelivery companies all looking to create their own #UTM. “This is why we can’t have nice things” I can hear Gur K. muttering from thousands of miles away. An enormous thanks to Kara Jones and her team for the invitation - honored and excited to be a resource for your cohorts. Notable mention/selfie with context: the NUAIR site is the real deal - from their #BVLOS corridor and their unmatched #infrastructure to the SOBERING REAL-WORLD CLIMATE, UAS Nexus is excited to partner with them to help bring this ecosystem to various parts of the country/globe.

MakeSense Technology and their navigation aid are taking a big step towards commercial success 🚀     Blind and partially sighted pedestrians could soon be guided to their destination safely by a device sitting in the palm of a user’s hand after the start-up firm, supported by Connected Places Catapult, received major investment to help take the product to market.    Read more 👉 https://lnkd.in/eHxFN3kS #Technology #Innovation #Investment #SME #Funding Robert Quinn

Given the past months weather events combined with the largely mainstream media ignored Wyoming super fire I can't help but think all our #AeroGear portfolio products could bring great synergy to the value proposition outlined here in solution sets from #RoGOCommunications. Think about the rugged location applications sets that could be developed, tested & deployed & then combined with the data collection & communication products described here. Now overlay all that with real heavy lift drone capability to field life saving success stories. https://lnkd.in/g4hSYbhn #flyingisntflightest

🚀 Flight Levels are already there in your company. We make them visible and tangible and perform improvements based on many patterns and examples that have proven themselves in practice. It's not about replacing existing roles, processes, and policies. It's about building an understanding of your own situation and driving laser-focused improvements that make sense in the specific context. #FlightLevels #OrgDev #OrgDesign

𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 It’s been a while since my last update — 2024 seems to be flying by faster than expected! This year has been anything but routine, and I’m thrilled to share a few key developments. Earlier this year, I stepped back into the CEO role at Byte Orbit and have begun crafting our vision for Version 3.0. Change is inevitable in the tech industry, and it’s something we must embrace with intention. The continuous evolution of solutions and tools makes adaptability critical for survival. I'm energized by the journey ahead and the opportunities that change brings, along with the excitement of exploring new horizons. At AutonoSky, we’ve been hard at work consolidating last year’s progress, and I’m proud to say we’ve made great strides: • Sold two #Autono1 units in the first half of the year • Improved our delivery payload capabilities • Began development of a more portable multi-rotor system • Secured an exclusive license for the fire detection sensor patent we’ve been integrating • Started developing our own PCBs • Formalized new industry partnerships • Advanced our Ground Control Software • Invested in R&D for drone light shows • Attracted significant military interest in our technology And that’s just the beginning... there’s even more to come, but I’ll save that for another time! Here’s to celebrating an unpredictable year, the privilege of building and leading high-performance teams, and partnering with clients and customers who are determined to make a difference. Together, we can achieve incredible things. #TechInnovation #Leadership #DroneTechnology #Teamwork #Growth #Adaptability

Tech has become a critical driver for generating value. But in many cases, the pressure to move quickly leads to too much of a focus on the tech itself and not enough on everything else that’s required to make it work for an organization. This can lead to a host of problems, including a series of uncoordinated pilots that don’t add value (“death by a thousand pilots”).

Say goodbye to traffic jams and long commutes 🚗! Simulation is helping startups get the aircraft of tomorrow off the ground and flying to work could become a reality sooner than we think 🚁.
