Six-year-old uAvionix, a pioneer in communications, navigation, and surveillance avionics for unmanned systems, on April 28 announced in a news release that it has been granted a new U.S. Patent 10,991,260—the company’s eighth—aimed at making US airspace safer by warning fixed and rotary wing aircraft of a nearby UAS. If a drone equipped with the new technology should ever climb above a pre-set altitude limit—normally about 400 feet agl—the drone will begin broadcasting its position via ADS-B viewable to other ADS-B equipped aircraft in the vicinity.
