Calling all drone airspace security companies: FAA seeks participants in research program to test unmanned aircraft systems detection and mitigation technologies at airports
On 21 August 2020, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) published a Call for White Papers to identify eligible manufacturers, vendors, and integrators of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS or drone) detection and/or mitigation technologies/systems for participation in the FAA's Airport UAS Detection and Mitigation Research Program.
The announcement follows on the heels of the joint advisory guidance on the legalities of UAS detection and mitigation technology recently published by the FAA, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Federal Communications Commission, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. We previously published an article discussing the joint advisory guidance which you can access here.
