Established in 2008, the Applied Research Laboratory will conduct research, development, engineering, and test and evaluation of programs.
This is the world’s first demonstration of the potentially transformative capability for wave energy converters to enable persistent oceanographic observation and unmanned, undersea vehicle recharge without a cable to shore.
State-of-the-art, unmanned aerial, surface and underwater drones were on full display at the Hawaiʻi Institute for Marine Biology on Coconut Island.
The event included a drone racing exhibition and displays of different drones and their applications by UH Mānoa engineering laboratories, commercial vendors and federal agencies.
The boot camp is a chance to learn from experts best practices for flying drones including safety issues and legal guidelines.
Ted Ralston will determine best practices on the use of unmanned aerial systems for Hawaiʻi.
UH Mānoa’s Margo Edwards worked with 17-year-old Christopher Lindsay in developing new methods to observe marine life using underwater time-lapse cameras.
Margo Edwards takes over as executive director of the ARL/UH as U.S. Navy Vice Admiral Michael C. Vitale steps down.
The U.S. Navy modified its contract with UH’s Applied Research Laboratory to add a new core technical competency in renewable energy.
