Tracks
Thursday, November 16, 2023
1:30 PM - 2:30 PM
Nicholls Theatre


Revolution Aerospace, an Australian SME focused on benefiting society through the advancement of autonomous systems technologies, will be showcasing their latest research and development threads, and their service lines to support the Australian Defence ecosystem. Within this presentation, Revolution Aerospace will showcase how their R&D building blocks are translated into revolutionary product, for the Australian Defence Force.
R&D threads, such as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning have translated into a collaboration with Queensland University of Technology and the Trusted Autonomous Systems, with Revolution Aerospace pioneering a low-cost electronic warfare support capability deployable on small uncrewed aerial vehicles. This innovation will significantly enhance situational awareness of decision-makers, empowering them to make more effective responses to intelligent threats on the modern battlefield.
Another R&D thread in Detection and Tracking has translated into a late-stage concept for an on-board Detect and Avoid (DAA) payload for Small UAS (SUAS), combining computer vision, ADS-B (In), NASA’s DAIDALUS guidance and alerting software, and a customised DAA display system. This capability will unlock airspace access, improve user situational awareness, and provide our Defence Force a sovereign solution to enhance mission efficiency by increasing geographic range for UAS operations.
The Revolution Aerospace team comprise systems engineers, UAS operators and technical specialists and we support current projects within Army Small UAS Branch, The Defence Aviation Safety Authority and Airforce HQ. Revolution Aerospace are committed to provide sovereign solutions to meet our Defence needs and are excited to demonstrate these at MilCIS.
