Research 2

Developing the Marine Environment Monitoring UAS for the Reduction of Fish Farm Damage

  • Marine environment observation UAV is being developed to instantly capture various marine phenomena occurring on the coast by carrying two sets of multi-Spectral imaging cameras

  • The remote reflectance of seawater is the most basic optical property to estimate color components in seawater and we could remotely estimate the chlorophyll concentration, and etc.

Research 4

UAV based on Small Rocket Propulsion

  • Expansion of the mission range of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) (long-range, real-time, long-term flight)

  • Increase of initial speed/altitude through rocket propulsion during take-off

  • Supply more than 50% of the required energy to the rocket during the flight phase

  • Supersonic flight with low propulsion load (2~3G)

  • Comparatively simple additional system (rocket propulsion device attached to the foldable UAV)

  • Suitable to meet the demand for micro-miniature UAV

  • Low-cost, real-time, high-resolution data collection compared to artificial satellites
