San Antonio university flies high with launch of innovative drone lab #drone #droneday
Great news if you are a college student looking to learn more about drones! St Mary’s University is openeing a drone lab. I’m sure programs like this will only expand. Via Culture Map:
“The Federal Aviation Administration predicts the U.S. registered commercial drone fleet to climb to between 442,000 and 1.6 million units in the next few years, which will, in turn, create a few hundred thousand jobs,” says Winston Erevelles, dean of the School of Science, Engineering and Technology.
In addition to helping develop the next generation of drone-industry workers, the new Drone Lab will be able to host summer camps for high school students and will become home to a new Drone Club, which will be open to all St. Mary’s students.
Welcome to drone day on the Adafruit blog. Every Monday we deliver the latest news, products and more from the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), quadcopter and drone communities. Drones can be used for video & photography (dronies), civil applications, policing, farming, firefighting, military and non-military security work, such as surveillance of pipelines. Previous posts can be found via the #drone tag and our drone / UAV categories.
