Science and technology, explained simply
Ukrainian military is conducting tests of FPV drones capable of identifying enemy electronic warfare sources, which could become a significant step forward in the use of unmanned aerial vehicles in combat conditions. Test Details Video recordings have emerged showing tests of an FPV drone equipped with an integrated signal receiver. This system can detect emission […]
Researchers at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland) have created a drone capable of landing on vertical supports. The developed drone, called PercHug, copies the gecko landing technique. Drones that can cling to trees already exist. But their landing methods typically involve claws, spikes, and grappling. Engineers, on the other hand, sought a passive […]
UAC launched serial production of Leleka-LR reconnaissance drones and Bulava strike drones exclusively for the Ukrainian army. This was reported by the Czech publication E15. UAC is a branch of the private Ukrainian company DeViRo, which has been developing and manufacturing military-grade drones since 2014. The company has launched mass production in the Czech city […]
For the first time in Ukraine, a kamikaze drone called “Bulava” by UAC was presented, which is called an analog of the Russian barrage munition “Lancet”, but it carries more explosives, flies further and automatically detects targets. The new Ukrainian drone has the export name Mace, but the inscription on its wings says that its […]
The Canadian company One Silicon Chip Photonics has developed a highly cost-effective inertial optical system that is on par with navigation sensors used in the aviation industry. The schemes developed by the company provide highly accurate navigation even without GPS signals. Because they are completely mechanical, these circuits are ten times more accurate than the […]
Scientists have created a wireless technology for transmitting electromagnetic waves over long distances using phased array antennas to focus waves in a specific direction. A team from the University of Texas at Dallas has received a fellowship from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop wireless technology for recharging drones in flight. Interesting […]
Feloni Aero, a US-based pioneer in unmanned aerial vehicle technology, has announced the launch of its new line of FelonX and Felon 1.0 armed drones aimed at strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities With the recent passage of the US government’s financial assistance bill for Ukraine, Feloni Aero will provide advanced UAVs to strengthen the Ukrainian Armed […]
Ukrainian soldiers from the “Pomsta” brigade of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine reported shooting down a Russian Orlan-10 reconnaissance drone near Chasovyi Yar in Donetsk region. The drone was destroyed by a Browning M2 machine gun. The video of the successful attack was posted on social media. Reporter Andriy Tsapliyenko noted that the […]
Soon, multirotor drones will be able to charge their batteries on the go instead of returning to a charging station. They will be able to do this with the help of on-board ultra-thin solar panels that have been successfully tested on a small quadcopter. Most drones can only fly for about 30 minutes before their […]
Calheon, a volunteer-based company, is a drone manufacturer in Ukraine. From its humble beginnings as a group of enthusiasts, the company has grown into a professional team with more than ten employees, producing FPV drones of various sizes – 7, 8, 10, and 13 inches. These vehicles are equipped with advanced technical characteristics that meet […]
