Many UAV projects continue to focus on high speed delivery and integration with air traffic management systems, but the war in Ukraine has taken the industry in a different direction. Military use of UAVs is evolving fast, and the Sensus L on page 108 is a key example of the capabilities that can be brought to bear on the battlefield. More UAV technology was on show at XPONENTIAL Europe (page 98) along with the RigiTech Eiger delivery UAV (page 50), showing how the technology has reached tipping point in commercial and defence applications. Enhanced development of rugged reliability is used when decommissioning nuclear plants, as we discuss with Prof Barry Lennox (page 20) and the evolution of motor controllers on page 88. Lidar laser sensor technology is similarly evolving fast, and we look at the latest developments (page 80) as well as the LOXO delivery van (page 26). Driverless vehicle innovation continues with commercial autonomous shuttles now operating in France and Switzerland. Dependent on regulations, it won’t be long before these and other autonomous systems are a part of everyday life in the air, at sea, and on the ground.
