Allison Transmission’s Post

Chris, one has to ask the panel, which eVTOLs? The sUAS commercial drones already making a difference in almost every sector from agriculture to zoology , or the passenger ones, which include electric helicopters, that will replace current light helicopters for business aviation, EMS, law enforcement, the military and urban air mobility. One should.note that replacing helicopters with passenger eVTOLs is much like replacing diesel buses with electric ones, they are greener, quieter and smarter but the service remains the same.

The International Civil Aviation Organization mentioned in a report about the future of aviation that: “in a little over a century, our industry has gone from learning to fly, to learning to fly faster, learning to fly further, learning to fly heavier planes, and now to having 100,000 plus commercial flights occurring around the world each and every day.” Digital Engineering lies at the heart of the aeronautics industry’s drive towards shorter development cycles and reduced costs. Akkodis white paper "Driving Innovation in Aviation, Space & Defense" demonstrates how we collaborate with our aerospace and defense clients to exploit the full potential of technology, as well as addressing the engineering and operational challenges that come with it. Please refer to the link below for more information. It is great news for Akkodis to be recognised as an Aerospace Leader by Zinnov. #aerospace #akkodis #digitalengineering #aviationindustry #technologytransformation

Our patented LiFi technology by OLEDCOMM is utilized in various applications. For over a year, our high-speed and secure wireless infrared-based data transmission solution has been operational in Orbit. Oledcomm proudly stands as the first and only LiFi technology provider to achieve this significant milestone. Learn more about this in our blog post "SatelLife: LiFi Explores New Horizons in Space": "Oledcomm Marks Milestone with LiFi Technology on Board the INSPIRE-SAT 7 Nanosatellite. Oledcomm achieved a significant milestone by equipping the INSPIRE-SAT 7 nanosatellite, launched on April 15th into low orbit, with LiFi (Light Fidelity) technology. ….. In practical terms, Oledcomm’s LiFi technology uses LEDs that flash at a very high frequency (30 MHz) to transmit and receive information at high speeds, with minimal latency, in the nanosecond range. Moreover, LiFi can transport up to 3 Gbps, making it an efficient alternative to cables for intra-satellite data transmission."

Highlights from ILA Berlin - Pioneering Aerospace 1.    Prominent Presence of In-Space Manufacturing Companies Noteworthy is the significant presence of companies focused on in-space manufacturing. Key players include The Exploration Company, Voyager Space, Redwire Space Europe, and Airbus. The pioneering mission by Varda Space Industries seems to have inspired many in the industry, though I remain skeptical about the market size. Bioprinting, in particular, holds promise, yet a commercially viable product appears to be at least a decade away. It is evident that both Europe and the US are recognizing low Earth orbit as a commercial frontier, while space agencies are shifting their focus toward deep space exploration. 2.    Funding Shifts and Security Discourse I liked how one of the speakers said with regret that there will be less money for exploration projects in the future, because in the foreseeable future more money will be spent on war. This shift towards security and technological sovereignty was palpable. The European Union is acutely aware of the strategic importance of space for Europe's future security. The current situation mirrors post-Yugoslav war developments when Europe established its own GNSS. Today, similar efforts are underway with IRIS², despite the realistic expectations that the system will not be operational by 2027 and will likely exceed initial cost estimates. Plus the results of European Parliament elections will likely affect EU’s approach to space programs. 3.    Emphasis on Long-Term Space Sustainability A key event was the signing of the ESA Zero Debris Charter by over forty organizations, underscoring a commitment to sustainable space activities. However, the document itself does not contain the clause of deorbiting of space object within five years, which is already a commitment for European Space Agency - ESA missions. This requirement currently applies mainly when companies seek an FCC license, effectively making the five-year rule a standard since 2022. The Zero Debris Charter remains non-binding, but it reflects a collective aspiration towards a future free from space debris. 4.    Support for Light Launch Vehicles Europe is poised to support the development of light launch vehicles, with anticipated, albeit modest, returns of European launch capabilities this summer with Ariane 6 and LV from Isar Aerospace. This initiative reflects an institutional push aiming to ensure Europe’s assured access to space, however commercial prospects of these LVs remain unclear to me. 5.    Local Focus of ILA Berlin ILA Berlin retains a local flavor, with a limited presence of international space companies. I had anticipated greater participation from French, Italian, and British firms, as well as leading New Space companies from Lithuania (Kongsberg NanoAvionics) and Belgium (Aerospacelab). Nevertheless, it was a pleasure to meet the colleagues from the Berlin office of EnduroSat.
