The National Drone Show will feature a Drone Flying Cage; a series of free-to-attend sessions on the exhibit floor covering the latest drone technologies and regulatory topics; and an intensive, day-long educational program, the Advanced UAV Workshop, held Dec. 7. Among the highlights:
Instructors from Unmanned Vehicle University, the only university in the world licensed to offer graduate degree programs in Unmanned Systems Engineering, will conduct free drone-operating demonstrations and educational sessions throughout the show in the Flying Cage, allowing attendees to experience firsthand the differing capabilities of various UAV technologies - such as DJI, AEE and XLY - and learn what products are best suited for their unique needs and requirements.
The Advanced UAV Workshop is a day-long track of drone training sessions produced in conjunction with Future Media Concepts/SMG; it is designed for all organizations and professionals wishing to incorporate UAV into their production workflow and for all UAV and drone operators planning to become pilots for commercial use. Sessions include Preparing for Your FAA Part 107 Test, Integrating UAV Into the Corporate/Commercial Environment, UAV Cinematography: A Recipe for Guaranteed Success, Identifying & Mitigating Risk in UAV Operation, Filters for UAV Cameras and A High-Level Overview of Current UAV Vehicles, Tools, Functions and Add-Ons. Find the full schedule at www.nationaldroneshow.com/workshop.
The D.C. Drone Film Festival will celebrate the visionary work of drone videographers from around the country. They'll compete for cash and other prizes, and the winning entries will be screened at the show.
The show is the only such event to bring together thousands of video professionals from the Washington region's government, military, law enforcement, enterprise, broadcast, cable, production and post production communities, said Carmel King, Executive Vice President, NewBay Media's Broadcast & Video Group. Invited exhibitors include drone manufacturers, drone accessory equipment companies and drone software and service providers.
