Paul Snyder's Key Insights from Teaching at the Silicon Valley of Unmanned Aircraft Systems

Описание: The full trust of the American public both in the industry and the FAA is required for the unmanned revolution to move forward. This is the fourth part of a 6 episode podcast series with industry experts, featuring Paul Snyder discussing the elements of public trust, safety, regulations, and recommendations that will move the technology forward. Our discussion is informed by the report, "Bridging the Gap: Sustaining UAS Progress While Pursuing a Permanent Regulatory Framework" from the Eno Center for Transportation.

Paul Snyder is the Assistant Chair and Director of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) at the University of North Dakota (UND). The New York Times calls the campus "the silicon valley of unmanned aircraft systems." Paul and Ken build for you a picture of what the unmanned industry looks like from flight test to small users to the military and compare and contrast the challenges in each segment.
