Australia is a sparsely populated country with a number of unique airspace features. This project will investigate novel vision-based collision warning systems that can improve safety for piloted aircraft and also help achieve integration of UASs (Uninhabited Aerial Systems) into national airspace. The benefits of UAS technologies are particularly relevant to Australia, as governments and industry struggle to cope with providing equivalent levels of service to remote communities over vast distances (or border protection of vast regions). The population base of Australia requires that cost-effective solutions are sought to meet this end. Read moreRead less

Summary
Developing novel concepts for improved safety in aircraft emergency situations. The outcomes of this project will enable the creation of an emergency system that can improve visual situation awareness in emergency landing scenarios by investigating novel detection, control and planning algorithms. The project will contribute significantly to Australia's share in technologies for aircraft automation.
