LiSA UAV: Development of Lightweight and Scalable Autonomous UAV Platform for Low-Cost Intelligent Aerial Sensing

Current autonomous drones for aerial sensing are often costly, heavy (typically over 500 g), and require licensed pilots under aviation regulations. This restricts their use for education, research, and small-scale field applications. LiSA UAV addresses this by offering a lightweight (d on a compact 2.5-inch cinewhoop carbon fiber frame. It supports multiple autonomous modes, including Loiter,

Portable Clean Room

In traditional aviation maintenance, all composite damage components have to be removed from the aircraft and sent to a controlled environment to perform the repair. This causes time and money to be lost. Even for a very minor damage, the component still has to be removed from the aircraft and repaired under a controlled environment. So,

HexSense: Ballistically Deployed Wireless Sensor Nodes for Future Planetary in-situ Explorations

Current methods for in-situ planetary surface exploration — whether on the Moon, Mars, or beyond — still rely primarily on single, high-cost platforms such as rovers and landers. Rovers, while mobile, are constrained by limited power and the need to avoid hazards, resulting in extremely slow movement (typically a few centimeters per second). As a result,
