Thrilled to see the progress on the Green UAS Program, a critical initiative by AUVSI — Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International promoting safe and secure autonomous technologies! As a proud member of AUVSI, an instrumental partner in the #TechHubs proposal, we strongly believe secure tech is essential for public and private sectors. This addition of new certified components is an incredible milestone resulting from the Green UAS data-sharing partnership with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) and will bolster our shared mission of building a secure supply chain for the drone industry. ➡ What this means for Tulsa’s #AdvancedAirMobility industry—Increased security, access, and effectiveness. Through TIL's partnership with AUVSI, Oklahoma Aerospace Institute for Research and Education at OSU, and Oklahoma Cyber Innovation Institute at The University of Tulsa, achieving a Green UAS certification ensures commercial drones are using a secure supply chain with components that are safe and readily available for integration. This provides organizations with enhanced capabilities and ensures compliance with stringent cybersecurity standards, helping us build a future of secure and trustworthy autonomous technology. #AAM #drones #UAS #AUVSI #OAIRE #OCII #TIL #cybersecurity #autonomoustechnologies #THETA #TechHubTulsa #EDATechHub
🚨 News: For the first time since the agreement of a recent Memorandum of Understanding between AUVSI and the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), the Blue UAS Framework has been expanded with the addition of new components facilitated through the Green UAS data sharing process. The newly added components are: -Aeronav ground control station, UXV Technologies -HD45 gimbal, Trillium Engineering -Embedded Mesh Rider radio, Doodle Labs -StreamCaster LITE 4200 radio, Silvus Technologies -WIRIS Enterprise camera, Workswell Why it matters: Our Green UAS data-sharing partnership with DIU is dedicated to fostering the deployment of secure, reliable platforms and components. The addition of these components marks a significant milestone in our shared mission to support the growth of a secure, certified supply chain for the #drone industry. Zoom in: These components have undergone rigorous evaluation through the GreenUAS certification process and are now live on the Blue UAS Framework website. They are readily available for integration, providing enhanced capabilities and ensuring compliance with stringent cybersecurity standards.
