UAV/UAS, DRONES � NO! RPAS (REMOTELY PILOTED AIRCRAFT SYSTEMS, EVEN AN AIRCRAFT…
ICAO, 28/08/2012
An aircraft (wing or rotor) without an human pilot on board. Its flight is either controlled automatically by computers in the
vehicle, or under the remote control of a pilot on the ground.

WHAT BRINGS THE (NEAR) FUTURE??
SOME SUGGESTIONS…
12

7
IN THE NEAR FUTURE
» Drones in all forms and sizes…from a few (g till thousands of kgs)
» Drones hovering everywhere, low to the ground till very high in the skies…
» Drones fly further, beyond the line of sight of the pilot and radio…
» Drone fly autonomously, no more pilots needed…
13
THE (NEAR) FUTURE
Some examples, which might influence or lives already tomorrow

HOWEVER,… IT’S NOT ABOUT THE DRONES BUT WHAT WE CAN DO WITH IT…
THE SUCCES OF THE DRONES WILL DEPEND ON ITS
APPLICATIONS

DRONES: DREAM OR REALITY?
Drones are here to STAY!!!BUT have some ‘challenges’ ahead….

25
LEGAL FRAMEWORK
Legal framework is COMPLEX - drones are part of Air Law andNOT considered as tools
49
LEGAL FRAMEWORK
» Example: Belgain legal frame work
» Law published April 2016 / Limited airspace and height/Extensive training end education
Legal framework is complex as drones are part of Air Law andNOT considered as tools

26
PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE: PRIVACY, SECURITY,…
Privacy rules must be respected and will be key to the success of drones in our western societies
51
BENEFIT: SOCIETAL, FINANCIAL,
» Flare inspections by drones saves several > 10k€
» Increased Safety
Drones will only be succesful if the can offer a considerable ecnonomic or societal benefit
52

27
CHALLENGES AHEAD
» Not a stand-alone technology: must fit into and be scalable into a (existing) process,
» Safety: Reliabilty, lack of standards,…
Some more ‘Challenges’ ahead:
53
CHALLENGES AHEAD
» Integration of drones into the existing airspace andair traffic management:
» VITO Spin-off ‘Unifly’ created in August 2015
» Pioneer in what’s called ‘UTM’ (Unmanned Traffic Management) � U-space
» Succesful captial rounds for in total 6 M€
» Leading European company in its branch
» Employing 25 + people
Some more ‘Challenges’ ahead:
