How to ensure privacy and safety of citizens. What happens with all the data gathered through drone operations? How standards can help in dealing with illegal drone activity As the SESAR Very Large Demonstration for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) project called AMU-LED works through the planning and permissions for the demonstration phases in the UK, Read more about Privacy Considerations within UTM[…]
AMU-LED assumes that current U-space responsibilities and services will have to be extended to cope with the particularities of the missions and business cases that are specific to Urban Air Mobility (UAM) such as passenger and cargo transport. However, the rapid pace of UAM development poses a challenge for the timely development of regulations and Read more about UTM standard evolution in Europe and US – an integrated perspective[…]
With the Horizon SESAR JU Very Large Demonstrator project AMU-LED we take the opportunity to not only demonstrate how complex scenarios with multiple types of unmanned aircraft can safely be performed in an urban environment, but we also actively engage with the public. The first conclusions of a local research study show that the general Read more about Added societal value of Urban Air Mobility[…]
AMU-LED participated in the World ATM congress through a joint presentation with other U-Space projects founded by the SESAR JU: DACUS , BUBBLES and USEPE. The session took place at the WATMC Tower Theatre, on the 27th October with the title “Challenges of Advanced U-space Services and Concepts in Urban Environments”. AMU-LED project was represented Read more about AMU-LED WAC Participation[…]
Urban Air Mobility revolution is expected to crowd the airspace, especially over cities, with a large variety of unmanned operations, from goods delivery to air taxis, but also infrastructure inspection, etc.. As reported in our previous blog, by 2035, our skies will be at least ten times busier than today. However, such a revolution will Read more about Can drones fill our skies safely?[…]
When looking at a not-so-distant future, it seems clearer every day that drones will be part of our skies. From last-mile deliveries to taxi services, without forgetting recreational drones or first-time responders, there are plenty of initiatives across the world to incorporate Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) into our life. In Europe, projects like AMU-LED are Read more about What are the biggest challenges for integrating drones in our cities?[…]
AMU-LED’s Concept of Operations (ConOps) targets a transitional mid-term (2025-2030), when the first piloted air-taxis will start operating in cities within U-space airspaces with most U1-U2 services deployed. AMU-LED assumes that current U-space responsibilities and services will have to be extended to cope with the particularities of the missions and business cases that are specific Read more about AMU-LED UAM Concept of Operations[…]
Research into Urban Air Mobility is accelerating its uptake in Europe. AMU-LED for instance is looking into the capabilities of U-space to enable Urban Air Mobility – answering questions related to the maturity of concepts and technology, what are the challenges, and what needs to be done to implement this new form of mobility. One Read more about Smart cities – the biggest allies (or antagonists) of UAM[…]
U-space is a set of new services relying on a high level of digitalisation and automation of functions and specific procedures designed to support safe, efficient and secure access to airspace for large numbers of drones. UAM refers to an ecosystem that enables on-demand, highly automated, passenger or cargo-carrying air transport services with particular reference Read more about Looking for medium density in UAM operations[…]
The first AMU-LED workshop was held on the 30th of April from 10am to 12pm CET. Attendees were introduced to the main goals and scope of the AMU-LED project including details of the very large flight demonstrations scheduled for 2022.
