The Academy center for unmanned aircraft systems research seeks to find research solutions to heterogeneous,autonomous unmanned systems.
The overall research topics of interest are real-time technologies associated with lightweight cooperative unmanned aircraft systems used in an increasing number
of military and civilian applications.
Currently, the center is looking for a research team who can develop comprehensive solution methods that can (1) incorporate aperiodic sensor data obtained from multiple heterogeneous sensors to geo-locate mobile targets and (2) predict the position and orientation of targets in future time based on accumulated sensor data and physical and environmental constraints.
The USAFA is not requesting full applications at this time.
Refer to the USAFA-BAA-2009-1 Amendment 2 full announcement white paper submittal process to apply.
