 New Detect and Avoid System Against Rogue Aircraft

New technology will increase the safety of autonomous flights during commercial operations.  The autopilot and detect and avoid (DAA) system will allow unmanned aircraft to find uncooperative aircraft in their airspace and autonomously take action to avoid them.  UAV Navigation will use Iris
