Below Horizon Aircraft Detection Using Deep Learning for Vision-Based Sense and Avoid
Commercial operation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) would benefit from an onboard ability to sense and avoid (SAA) potential mid-air collision threats. In this paper we present a new approach for detection of aircraft below the horizon.

Safety for non-microlight pilots [PDF]
Microlight aircraft are some of the safest, cheapest and most fun aircraft flying in the UK. The fatal accident rate, at around 1 per 30,000 flying hours is similar to that of General Aviation overall, and rather better than some parts of it in recent ...

Prompting Interfacial Elastic Instability for Effective and Durable Icephobic Surfaces
To address the inherent trade‐off between icephobicity and the mechanical strength of icephobic materials, a new icephobic material design strategy is proposed by integrating fibrous construction frameworks and icephobic polymer. The structure prompts interfacial elastic instability and the subsequent undulatory interfacial stress at ice/solid ...
