IITSEC 2013: Corsair unveils generic UAS training system
Corsair Engineering is showcasing its generic UAV training system at I/ITSEC 2013 after successfully installing the system as part of a training course for the University of North Dakota.
‘What we’ve developed is the equivalent of a Cessna in the pilot world,’ explained Richard Becker, lead software engineer at the company. The result has been a generic UAS pilot and sensor training system that the company has called the Integrated Multi-Mission Multi-Platform UAS Trainer (IM3PUT).
The trainer is designed to give potential UAS pilots and sensor operators the experience of operating a UAS without being hitched to a specific platform.
