UNobhala Wezokuthutha wase-US umemezela u- $ 3.3 wezigidi kwizibonelelo ze-drone emanyuvesi

UNobhala Wezokuthutha wase-US U-Elaine L. Chao namuhla umemezele ukuthi i-Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) iklomelisa amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-3.3 ocwaningweni, emfundweni nasekuqeqesheni amanyuvesi ahlanganisa i-FAA Air Transportation Centre of Excellence (COE) ye-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), eyaziwa nangokuthi I-Alliance for System Safety ye-UAS ngokusebenzisa i-Research Excellence (ASSURE).

"Lezi zibonelelo zizosiza ekuthuthukiseni amasu amaningi amasha okusebenzisa ngempumelelo ama-drones ngesikhathi sezimo eziphuthumayo," kusho uNobhala Wezokuthutha wase-US u-Elaine L. Chao.

Uhlelo lwe-FAA's COE, olugunyazwe yiCongress, luwubudlelwane besikhathi eside, bokwabelana ngezindleko phakathi kwezemfundo, izimboni, kanye nohulumeni. Lolu hlelo lwenza i-FAA ikwazi ukusebenzisana namalungu esikhungo kanye nabasebenzisana nabo ukwenza ucwaningo mayelana ne-airspace kanye nokuhlela nokuklama kwesikhumulo sezindiza, imvelo kanye nokuphepha kwezindiza. I-COE iphinde ivumele i-FAA ukuthi yenze eminye imisebenzi ehlobene nezokuthutha.

Okwamanje kunezigidi ezingu-1.65 zama-drones ezokungcebeleka nezohwebo (PDF) kumikhumbi ye-UAS esebenzayo. Lelo nani kulindeleke ukuthi likhule lifinyelele ezigidini ezingu-2.31 ngo-2024. Izibonelelo ze-ASSURE zihloselwe ukuqhubeka nokuhlanganiswa okuphephile nokuphumelelayo kwama-drones emkhathini wezwe.

Umqondisi we-FAA uSteve Dickson uthe, "Ukubambisana kubaluleke kakhulu njengoba sisebenzela ukuhlanganisa i-UAS ngokuphepha ohlelweni lwe-aerospace." "Lezi zibonelelo ezibalulekile zixhasa ucwaningo olusivumela ukuthi sifunde futhi sisebenzise izinyathelo zokuphepha ezihlobene nokusebenza kwe-UAS endaweni yomoya."

Lolu xhaso ngeyenyuvesi ehamba phambili ye-ASSURE ukuhlinzeka ngokuphathwa kohlelo lonke. Lolu hlelo lokuphatha luzobandakanya ukulandela ngomkhondo imininingwane yezezimali yayo yonke imisebenzi ewumsuka yephrojekthi yasenyuvesi; ukubuyekezwa kanye nokuhlolwa kwawo wonke amadokhumenti ahlobene nephrojekthi ngaphambi kokuthunyelwa ku-FAA; ukusingathwa nokuphatha yonke imihlangano edingwa yi-FAA; kanye nokufinyelela kuhulumeni, izimboni, nezifundiswa.

Ukulungiselela Inhlekelele kanye Nempendulo (Isigaba I se-II, njengoba kuqondiswa uKhongolose)

Lolu cwaningo luzohlinzeka ngemininingwane ekuhlanganisweni okuphephile kwe-UAS ezindaweni zokulungela izinhlekelele kanye nezindawo zokusabela. Lolu cwaningo luzobheka ukuthi i-UAS ingasiza kanjani ekulungiseleleni izinhlekelele kanye nokusabela ezinhlekeleleni ezehlukene zemvelo nezenziwe abantu. Izogxila ezinkambisweni zokuxhumanisa noMnyango Wezangaphakathi, uMnyango Wezokuphepha Kwasekhaya, i-Federal Emergency Management Agency, nezinye izinhlangano zikahulumeni, zendawo kanye nezifundazwe ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukusebenzisana okufanele phakathi nalezo zimo eziphuthumayo.
