new Not only will innovation stimulate substantial growth and create new markets, we believe it also will disrupt sectors which historically have stoked high inflation. We believe that global oil demand is likely to peak within the next few years as electric vehicles begin to scale and as autonomous electric taxi networks account for an increasing share of miles traveled. DNA sequencing will introduce science to health care decision-making in a way never before possible, minimizing the guess work and eliminating waste. At the same time, robots will serve not only as an antidote to labor shortages that are cropping up in the US, Japan, China, and elsewhere, but also should increase productivity, one of the most powerful forces against inflation. — Ark Invest, 9h ago

new There is no one-size-fits-all solution to urban safety. What makes people feel secure and how much personal freedom and privacy they are willing to sacrifice in order to be at ease are culturally specific.

By designing purpose-built vertiports, geometric features that can minimize the occurrence of hazardous airflow conditions can be incorporated. — Connected World - IoT and Digital Transformation, 2d ago

new Education actions included reaching wider and different audiences such as landscapers, farmers, and project managers on the benefits of using compost for large, public and private commercial projects. For individuals to better understand why compost can replace fertilizers we need to "be able to demonstrate to end users the value… of using commercial compost." The groups discussed actions to develop new delivery models (train the trainer and individual) and that a regional panel of experts could be established to review and develop new materials. Some discussion was had about who should provide the education with at least one group coalescing around the idea that Illinois Extension could train community-based organizations who in turn could train community members. There were also ideas on how compost education could be improved for both teachers and students by hiring school sustainability specialists, encouraging/incorporating composting practices in schools, connecting composting to other subjects such as biology and environmental sciences, making sure teachers were experienced home composters, and in general figuring out how to get composting added to school curriculum either by contacting... — extension.org, 2d ago

Use-specific regulations outlined in the proposed zoning amendments include standards addressing the size, location and screening of the drone staging areas, buffer requirements between staging areas and sensitive land uses and parking and loading requirements.Yet, the city is limited primarily to regulating land use — including location of the hubs and other ground-based facilities. Flight paths, flight altitude, number of flights or packaging contents are all regulated under the Federal Aviation Administration.Main concerns with drone delivery include noise and privacy. However, DroneUp’s COO, Anthony Vittone said the drones aren’t louder than a neighbor’s leaf blower or a delivery truck driving down the street, and while the drones have a camera, it is only used for navigation purposes and to ensure it is safe to maneuver the product to the ground as the drone hovers about 80 feet in the air during delivery.The company’s drones are about 45 pounds and the package weight limit is 10 pounds. Even with that weight limit, about 70% of the products in a Walmart are available for drone delivery, Vittone said.Vittone pointed to the societal benefits of drone delivery including helping to deliver over-the-counter medicine to people who can’t or don’t feel like leaving their homes. The service can also help people with disabilities or mobility challenges, elderly people and more.“We could soon be at a place where you do an online appointment with your doctor, he or she calls in a prescription into your pharmacy, the pharmacy delivers it and over the entire transaction you haven’t left your couch,” Vittone said.Vittone also noted that drone delivery helps with reducing carbon emissions and wear-and-tear on roads.“I believe in about five years it’s going to be completely ubiquitous… We’re probably going to get to a place where eventually people are going to think it’s crazy that we used a 3,00 pound car to deliver a 10 pound package,” he said.The city has also looked into the operations of Amazon Prime Air and Causey Aviation Unmanned and received letters of interest from companies and agencies, including the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) and the Small UAV Coalition.© 2023 The Dallas Morning News.

This makes it one of the lightest, most efficient, and lowest-drag transitioning VTOL airframes we have seen. The aircraft has a smaller ground footprint while being able to fly farther, faster, longer, and carry heavier payloads than other VTOL aircraft of a similar size and weight. It still weighs more than a fixed-wing plane, but the difference is minimal. This is critical for everything from drone delivery to air taxis with extensive government, defense, industrial, and commercial applications as well. — Inceptive Mind, 24d ago

The recent launch of Michigan Central and the Michigan Department of Transportation’s (MDOT) Advanced Aerial Innovation Region brings light to what the UAV industry can provide at a community level and gives a look into the future of unmanned aviation in urban areas.

Why is having higher-density weather measurements so important? Traditional aviation weather systems rely heavily on modeled forecasts rather than direct weather measurements, especially below 5,000 in the atmosphere and just above ground level. While models allow for an estimate of weather conditions, they can mask potential threats and hazards in the lower atmosphere where drone and air taxi flights occur. Additionally, weather models, no matter the scale and resolution, use a model of what we believe the atmosphere looks like to kick off the forecast simulation, with very little real data in the lower atmosphere. The way to improve weather certainty about what is happening requires real data, and that is TruWeather’s focus. TruWeather recommends sensors to customers and partners that will most likely meet the ASTM F38 Weather Standard and, in some cases, will improve not only operator awareness about what is happening along a BVLOS route of flight but also improve short-range forecasts of winds, cloud ceilings, etc. — truweathersolutions.com, 4d ago

More than anything, e-commerce is about speed. Shoppers want their orders delivered as fast as possible, and in many cases that means on the same day that they were placed. Amazon.com, along with major retailers like Walmart and Target, have the networks and deep pockets that are necessary to ensuring consistent same-day delivery. Meanwhile, smaller merchandisers that don’t want to sell their wares on those platforms have had to scramble to catch up. Are they saddled with unreasonable expectations? On this episode, we explore the complexities of same-day service with the help of Brendan Heegan, chief executive officer of retail fulfillment provider Boxzooka. We learn what it takes to set up a same-day network, whether it’s possible for smaller entities to compete, and what additional steps they can take to ensure customer satisfaction while still making a profit. For that matter, do shoppers really need their orders today? Hosted by Bob Bowman, Editor-in-Chief of SupplyChainBrain. — supplychainbrain.com, 3d ago

Clevon, a manufacturer of autonomous vehicles for delivery, has one of its offices here. The small delivery vans of the Estonian company can be seen driving in the streets of Tallinn, as well as in other European countries and the US. In fact, the company was the first to obtain a license to operate its unmanned robot carriers on European public roads and started operations in Texas. Clevon embraced a step-by-step approach toward autonomous driving, developing a teleoperation functionality to always have a fallback at its disposal. Once more traffic data and experience are gained, the autonomy level increases and the number of vehicles a remote operator can manage simultaneously grows accordingly. — IO, 8d ago

...“So suddenly, a rider of choice … this becomes a much more of a viable option,” said Hoffman.Moves to a citywide dynamic microtransit system will make transit a more viable mobility option for the 650 households with no car, and about a third of the households with only one car, suggesting about 30 percent of the population has “the potential need for transit,” said Hoffman.It’s the kind of change that aids in workforce development by realistically getting workers to their jobs, and opens up access to fresh foods and shopping opportunities.“Opening grocery markets, in whatever way possible, basically creates more customers,” said Heather Arnold, senior manager for Economic Development for Physical Stores at Amazon, speaking on the panel. “What if we had better ways to get customers to the store?”Often, said Arnold, the market forces needed to develop a grocery store in many neighborhoods do not exist, given the cost of the development and revenue requirements. So, if cities can find ways to make it easier to get residents to the stores they already have, “food deserts” could be mitigated.“You cannot make a risky move that fails. You just can’t,” said Arnold, remarking on the idea of building a new store, given the narrow profit margins for grocery stores.The new transit system in Winchester goes live this spring.

Robotic mining refers to the use of autonomous or remote-controlled robots to extract minerals or resources from mines. These robots are equipped with sensors, cameras, and tools to navigate the mine, locate and extract resources, and transport them to a designated location. The two main uses of robotics in mining are for drilling and haulage. Drilling rigs can be automated to various extents, while haulage vehicles can be replaced by autonomous trucks or autonomous railways. Minor uses include underground rock cutters and inspection drones. The three common goals of mining companies - safety, productivity, and sustainability - are all supported by robotic deployment. Safety is improved by the removal of humans from hazardous areas. Drilling rigs can be operated and supervised remotely rather than on-site, haulage can be done without human drivers, underground tasks can be done without human presence, and the inspection of high walls or underwater regions can be done by drones, land rovers, and underwater robots. — Energy Monitor, 24d ago

It’s an open secret that drones, despite their many operational, cost and sustainability advantages over gas-powered vehicles, also suffer from a potentially fatal flaw: they run on batteries, which limit their flight time, usually to about 30 minutes. While breakthroughs in battery miniaturization are appearing on the horizon, most efforts to enhance drone endurance consist of technologies for battery switching – sometimes in mid flight – or the development of ground-based charging citations where drones can quickly land and relaunch with relative brief interruption. — Drone Videos & Photos, 5d ago

Drones represent a new facet in the spectacle of violence, enhancing the cartels' image of dominance in both land and air. While their current use in Mexico's conflict is somewhat limited, there is potential for their role to become more sophisticated in terms of weaponry and surveillance capabilities. This advancement in drone technology may lead to an expanded use beyond surveillance, especially in regions with clear territorial conflicts between organizations. — DroneXL.co, 5d ago

OSCE Helps Ukrainian Rescuers and Border Guards to Practice Response to Radiological Threats: “Seventy-five representatives from Ukraine’s State Emergency Service (SESU) and State Border Guard Service had a chance to improve knowledge and practice skills needed to respond to radiation-related emergencies at a series of two three-days training sessions, organized by the OSCE Support Programme for Ukraine (SPU) in Kyiv on 23-28 October 2023. During the training that included a combination of classroom sessions with practical exercises, the participants refreshed their knowledge on identification and ensuring protection against different types of radiation, ways to calculate exposure, as well as principles of radiological reconnaissance and control. The sessions aimed at raising their level of preparedness to deal with radiological emergencies happening as a result of technogenic incidents, terrorist attacks, or military action. ‘Risk of radiation-related emergencies is never zero in a country with nuclear power facilities, but of course for Ukraine now they increased significantly because of the ongoing war. While we hope these risks do not materialize, it is always better for emergency responders to be prepared to any negative developments. And we hope the training we provide will strengthen their ability to do all they can to save people if needed,’ – noted Pierre Baussand, the OSCE Support Programme Manager on this occasion.”... — Stimson Center, 4d ago

This presentation presents findings from a qualitative study involving a thematic analysis of the contents of 590 customer-reported complaints and 494 driver-reported incidents, all of which were provided by an accessible taxi brokerage in Toronto, Canada that is under contract to the city’s paratransit service. Our analysis draws upon a critical disability studies perspective informed by phenomenological and critical ableist studies. Findings underscore the temporal experiences of disability while highlighting ableist aspects of accessible taxi services that produce barriers for disabled riders relating to service quality, safety concerns, and inflexible taxi service policies. Findings also consider problematic driver communications, limitations in driver training and disability awareness, and inadequate driver-rider conflict management. We identify several areas where accessible taxi services can be improved. These include flexible policies that better account for the needs of disabled riders, improved communication protocols, and greater engagement with disabled people when developing policies and operational changes. We also present recommendations for a three-pronged disability training program for accessible taxi drivers and other paratransit drivers. — School of Cities, 5d ago

One of the products he highly recommends is a spraying unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). He explains that it’s not feasible for ground rigs to spot spray on hundreds or thousands of acres, but it is for a UAV. The only downsides that Wessels notes are that it weighs more than 55 pounds and, in order to fly it, the operator must have an agricultural pilot’s license. This, according to Wessels, is a major complication, and he’s hoping that the FAA will redefine the guidelines for autonomous aerial equipment. — precisionfarmingdealer.com, 7d ago

The key motivation to develop the system has been to improve safety at the port; since its inception the port has also become aware of the relatively large number of drone operators working and where they are operating. This information has proved particularly valuable for police, port security and customs agencies. It is not just the number of drone operations which has proved surprising but the different types of flight profiles; the port authority acknowledges that not all drones flying at the port will need UTM services. — Unmanned airspace, 22d ago
