ICUAS - International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems 2014

The 2014 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems, ICUAS'14, will be held in Orlando, FL, on May 27-30. Orlando is the home of the Disney World, one of the best attractions and touristic locations worldwide. May 27 will be a Workshop/Tutorial day, followed by a three-day technical Conference. Judging from the interest ICUAS has drawn over the past six years and its growth, ICUAS'14 is expected to attract the highest number of participants from academia, industry, federal/state agencies, government, the private sector, users, practitioners and engineers who wish to be affiliated with and contribute technically to this highly demanding and rapidly evolving and expanding field. Follow the web links for detailed information about the Conference. ICUAS'14 will be fully sponsored by the ICUAS Association, a non-profit organization. Information about the organization may be found at www.icuas.com. The conference is also technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) and the Mediterranean Control Association (MCA).

The theme of ICUAS'14 will focus on the very challenging topics of 'developing UAS standards'. Emphasis will also be given in topics related to integrating UAS into the national airspace and how UAS may be used in civilian and public domain applications, for example, early fire detection and forest protection, saving human lives and improving every day quality of life.
