Military & Aerospace Electronics Last Word Video Supplement
Okay. I'm telling frank and this the military and aerospace electronics last we're video supplement with me today is David Kelly CEO Lou and about So David what's driving the interest behind autonomous unmanned. Vehicles well over the last decade technologies' proven itself to be a cost effective
Lou and about -- So David what's driving the interest behind autonomous unmanned . Vehicles well -- over the last decade technologies' proven itself to be a cost effective efficient platform for -- he data collection. They'vesea life. And where some of the challenges in designing -- -- unmanned vehicles . Well if you look you -- the vehicles are designed to work in the ocean which is a harsh and challenging environment. If you compare it to air or ground unmanned vehicles . Let a couple of different challenges one as you're working -- extreme pressures in a water environment. That requires us to use pressure housing. Special underwater connectors. And other techniques designed to work -- high pressure in any harsh environment. The other aspect of it. Is that the communications to the vehicle are extremely low man with an internment. So I'm like an air or ground vehicle where you can rely on a high speed reliable data link. In the unmanned vehicles sub -- That data link is very slow think of -- dial up modem and a circa 1980.
