Internship Controls & Simulation: Sense & Avoid
Avy is looking for an intern that can be part of our R&D team to look into advanced sense & avoid systems for our UAVs.Avy builds drones for good. Together with our partners and clients, we use our drones for wildlife conservation and medical cargo projects.
Our platform is designed to fly far, beyond what a pilot on the ground can see. To ensure safe flights in airspace that is increasingly crowded, and in geographies that bring all kinds of challenges, we are integrating advanced sense & avoid systems that help us fly safe, autonomous and far beyond the pilot’s sight.
