18 The Commercial UAV Expo Americas is returning to the Westgate Resort & Casino in Las Vegas for its 5th edition, from October 28 to 30. With over 2500 attendees from across the commercial UAV solutions supply chain expected at the show, more than 185 exhibitors are expected to showcase their latest innovations and applications across a multitude of industries. Workshop attendees and conference topics will particularly look to discuss UAVs in construction, energy and utilities, forestry and agriculture, infrastructure and transport, mining and more. For the critical subject of public safety, thought-leaders from the various emergency services will meet at the Drone Responders Public Safety Summit for strategic discussions and workshops on UAS development and management, training standards and certification, and mutual assistance. Far-reaching and pressing industry issues such as unmanned air traffic management, AI and urban air mobility will also receive special focus in the conference and its various events. More than 100 speakers will present their ideas, analyses and experiences at the conference sessions, with organisations such as Airbus, FLIR, Facebook and the FAA represented. And as well as featuring new vehicles and systems on the expo floor, the exhibition will include product preview presentations for companies announcing their newest technology innovations. Outside the conference halls, cutting- edge aircraft designs, propulsion systems, data links, Lidars, cameras and much more will be on display for manufacturers and end-users in commercial, governmental and research organisations. There will be an outdoor demonstration area as well, to serve a similar purpose for new UAV designs.

Companies, researchers and regulators will attend to observe and determine the directions in which UAVs The 2020 edition of InfraTech Germany, Europe’s leading exhibition and conference for infrastructural solutions and technology, is to feature a dedicated Unmanned Systems zone on the expo floor. Generated through InfraTech’s partnership with The Unmanned Systems Expo, this addition to the trade exhibition is intended to showcase how well-placed and well-equipped unmanned vehicles, are moving, with visitors expected from 75 different nations. With a close eye on recent evolutions in the industry, the event’s main themes have been announced, with Urban Air Mobility, Digital Infrastructure and Rules and Regulations among the top billings. The conference events programme will aim to foster cooperation between multiple industries towards the goal of process improvements and cost robotics and automation technologies are to deal with the challenges facing infrastructures. UAVs can conduct surveys for signs of damage across bridges and industrial assets, UGVs can paint lines and place barriers around highway maintenance zones, and USVs and UUVs can inspect and clean canals and other waterways. And with advanced technologies such as AI algorithms, and 5G and LTE real- reductions for end-users of urban aerial transport systems. Automotive, aviation, telecoms, software and network companies from all parts of the supply chain are expected to take part in discussions about ways of developing and integrating new UAV technologies and systems in a safe and sustainable way.
