uAvionix confirmed that their Casia G will soon be able to support nighttime operations. This development will significantly expand its utility for Drone as First Responder (DFR) programs. The Casia G is a ground-based detect and alert system. It employs artificial intelligence and computer vision technology to monitor airspace and prevent mid-air collisions with UAS. The Japan Coast Guard (JCG) has purchased two additional SeaGuardian® Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) from General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc. (GA-ASI). The MQ-9B SeaGuardian is capable of medium-altitude, long-endurance flight of up to 24 hours. JCG deploys and operates SeaGuardian from the Japan Maritime Self Defense Force Air Station Hachinohe, primarily conducting Maritime Wide Area Search (MWAS) over the Sea of Japan and the Pacific Ocean. New York City has added a new tool to warn residents about threatening weather and flooding: drones. Drones equipped with loudspeakers now buzz around areas of the city where severe weather or flooding is forecast to hit, warning residents to take shelter or evacuate.
