UAV/Drone #engineer, living in Devon and working in Bristol. Enjoying post-PhD working life... Thoughts my own. He/him.

[University of Bristol @BristolUni]

Engineers who met at Bristol have secured £1.6m to take their green start-up to the next level.

@Perc_Robotics believe their autonomous drones and AI could cut the cost of wind turbine blade maintenance by 30%!

@Matthew__Watson Now that's a plume!

[BristolFlightLab @UOBFlightLab]

Continuing with our fixed-wing #aiaaSciTech theme, @BenSchellenberg presents a #UAS navigation algorithm to aid with robustly intercepting volcanic plumes for direct measurements. https://t.co/eWirlUYrRa. https://t.co/ODlYwA5qEd

[Ben Schellenberg @BenSchellenberg]

Excited to be presenting my paper on Automated Real-Time Volcanic Plume Interception for UAVs today at #aiaaSciTech as part of the @UOBFlightLab https://t.co/JuceuQXvom

Nice bit of PR from a government who seem to be comparatively on top of things

[Ben Schellenberg @BenSchellenberg]

Good news! My article was read enough times to be a #TopDownloadedArticle in the Journal of Field Robotics... https://t.co/hYIzDv7m7I

17-0, 23 minutes in - is this a sign of what is to come for #PostBrexitBritain ? #6Nations

@gregjames @markgs21 Well said Mark! Greg, you are appreciated nation-wide!! Should you find yourself in Devon there's a pint (and/or dog walk!) with your name on it. Go well...

An amazing chance to apply our skills and experience to conservation around critically endangered Kordofan Giraffe in Cameroon! https://t.co/KscLAcRRbY

[Dr Grainne McCabe @grainne_mccabe]

Bristol Zoological Society & U Bristol team up to see if drones could help save Kordofan giraffe https://t.co/FVaPX1xzKS @BristolUni

@Matthew__Watson @DJIGlobal Safe ops are conservative ops! That wind looks crazy strong - Mavic Mini surely couldn't handle it over the valley?!

[Ben Schellenberg @BenSchellenberg]

@Matthew__Watson @DJIGlobal Great stuff, glad it's going well. Probably a wise choice for the mini... Will pass it on!

[Ben Schellenberg @BenSchellenberg]

@volcan01010 I don't feel entirely qualified to answer as the engineer that I am - look out for an upcoming publication from @Matthew__Watson presenting our volcanological findings!

Excited to be experiencing my first #aiaaSciTech conference - an amazing scale and range of topics. Good to see lots of content relating to Clean Skies and electric propulsion too...
