The uAvionix Ecosystem Paves the Way for Safe Complex Operations
The uAvionix Corporation was founded with the mission of advancing aviation safety through a connected airspace. Their solutions are accelerating the integration of both crewed and uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) into the U.S. National Airspace System and paving the way for safe complex operations. For UAS, the company enables complex operations by providing a wide range of advanced equipment for airborne and ground command, navigation, and surveillance systems. When combined with aviation data and software services for managing command and control (C2) communications and detect and avoid (DAA) efforts, the low size, weight and power (SWaP) equipment creates a powerful ecosystem ready-made for scalable Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations.
