2 0 1 3 ANNUAL REPORT MESSAGE FROM AUVSI PRESIDENT & CEO, MICHAEL TOSCANO

AUVSI and the worldwide unmanned systems and robotics community had another banner year in 2013, as the promise of airspace integration grew closer and more people came to know of the many benefits such systems can bring to the table.

Both the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and European regulators released roadmaps that call for greater use of unmanned systems, eventually moving to full integration. AUVSI has continued its call for the FAA and other agencies to move as rapidly as possible to safely open the airspace to these systems to benefit humanity and help the industry grow.

We continue to be the “go to” resource on Capitol Hill, in the media and with key unmanned systems decision makers.

To help highlight the benefits of unmanned aircraft, we continued our outreach efforts by sponsoring “road show” events in several U.S. states, to highlight how integration — particularly in the field of agriculture — could benefit them through increased efficiency and new jobs. This information was contained in AUVSI’s first economic impact report highlighting jobs growth in the United States once full integration is achieved. In the first three years after integration, the economic impact will top $13.6 billion, climbing to more than $82.1 billion during the first decade. Most of that will be derived from the agriculture market, and we expect to see similar numbers worldwide as the technology continues to tackle dull, dirty, dangerous and difficult jobs.

We again enjoyed increased attendance at AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems 2013. For 2014, we are moving the show to May, and our popular AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems Program Review will shift to November.

We also took AUVSI’s great programming to Europe when we hosted AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems Europe conference in Köln, Germany, this past October. We were able to bring together international leaders to discuss UAS integration throughout the world.

AUVSI continues to be at the forefront of automated vehicle technology, working to bring together the various companies and individuals in this growing section of our industry. We hosted another successful Driverless Car Summit in Detroit, which featured a great lineup of speakers and some excellent presentations, and we’ll be following it up with another event in the summer of 2014.

AUVSI’s chapters continued their growth in 2013, including hosting several successful events of their own around the country and the world. Belonging to a chapter is an excellent way to get involved with unmanned systems and robotics at the local community level. However you do it, we urge you to get involved with us as we continue to advance the promise of this world-changing technology.

Best regards,

Michael Toscano, President & CEO, AUVSI

THE AUVSI FOUNDATION BOOSTS ACTIVITIES IN 2013

The AUVSI Foundation – the educational arm of AUVSI which focuses its efforts on attracting students to STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) overall but robotics specifically – continued its growth in 2013. In addition to the annual student competitions, the Foundation staff continues to expand by adding new programs that will reach out to students from kindergarten through college. Rounding out the very- popular competitions, the Foundation continues to grow programs such as the annual RoboTour held in conjunction with AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems and participation in National Robotics Week. The Foundation’s SeaPerch program continues to lead the efforts in the “K-12” (Kindergarten to 12th grade) arena. Sponsored by the U.S. Office of Naval Research, SeaPerch is the Navy’s signature outreach program and has attracted support in academic circles, industry and social organizations. The SeaPerch program reached more than 45,000 students during the 2013 year and it continues to reach students around the world. For more information on SeaPerch, visit www.seaperch.org. 2013 saw significant progress in preparation for the inaugural Maritime RobotX Challenge, another ONR-sponsored program scheduled for October, 2014 in Singapore. The RobotX program consists of student teams from the U.S., Singapore, Australia, Japan and South Korea competing in a robotic boat competition, all using a standard platform. For more information on the program, visit www.robotx.org. The Foundation continued its support for the efforts of Northrop Grumman – a Founding Partner – in the third UAE Innovation Challenge, held in Abu Dhabi, UAE. This robotic aircraft event built on the successes of the first two years and challenged UAE students to move beyond remote control aircraft as they learned more about autopilots, GPS navigation and other elements of UAS. The Foundation continues with its development of RoboNation (www.robonation.org). RoboNation is an online community of robotics enthusiasts and will become the central gathering place and communication link for a great many robotic programs and activities (not just those of the AUVSI Foundation). Membership in RoboNation is free and all AUVSI members with an interest in a social community focused on robotics are encouraged to join and refer others to this site.

9 STUDENT COMPETITIONS

COMMUNICATIONS AND PUBLICATIONS

COMMUNICATIONS AUVSI launched a series of “road show” events, based partly around the release of the economic impact report, which helped bring to life the economic and societal benefits of unmanned systems and robotics. Each stop highlighted local use of unmanned systems, then projected how the state could benefit in the future from full integration of UAS in the U.S. National Airspace System.

Each event included a press conference announcing AUVSI’s economic data from the state, a panel discussion with local academics and experts talking about the benefits and uses of unmanned systems in the state, and a UAS demonstration or exhibition from a local company or companies.

Road show events in 2013 included: Oklahoma, where the Department of Homeland Security is conducting its Robotic Aircraft for Public Safety program, which is geared to helping public safety officials find out information about the unmanned aircraft they may want to employ. This event included a press conference with Gov. Mary Fallin.

Kansas, where Kansas State University is conducting research on using unmanned aircraft for agriculture and public safety. This included a media event with local reporters, a session featuring U.S. Sen. Jim Moran and a flight demonstration featuring a small UAS.

Forks, Wash., where the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is studying birds, sea mammals and sea debris using small umanned aircraft. This event showcased this use to local and national reporters, including NPR.

Edwards, Calif., where NASA highlighted its long history with unmanned aircraft and its ongoing use of UAS to study hurricanes in a way never before possible. This helped educate more than a dozen local and national media about these uses. These road shows generated coverage across the states where they were held, and in some cases well 15 beyond, including both print and television reports. AUVSI continued to develop its public education website, www.increasinghumanpotential.org, which, like the road shows, highlights how the unmanned systems and robotics industry literally increases human potential by aiding with search and rescue, environmental monitoring, traffic safety and other civil and commercial tasks.

A new feature added to the site is Unmanned Unplugged, featuring in-depth interviews with various experts about how they use unmanned systems. As of the middle of November, the interviews have included:

Mike Hutt, U.S. Geological Survey Alan Frazier, University of North Dakota Chuck Johnson, NASA Joseph Cione, NOAA Lance Brady, Bureau of Land Management Mark Blanks, Kansas State University Jamey Jacob, Oklahoma State University Ben Miller, Mesa County (Colo.) Sheriff’s Office Matt Schroyer, Drone Journalism Lab Marc Goss, Mara Elephant Project Todd Jacobs, NOAA

The site promotes the use of unmanned systems and robotics in the following categories: By Land, Air and Sea Jobs and Economy Enhancing Public Safety Mitigating and Monitoring Disasters Helping the Environment Fostering Education and Learning Increasing Efficiency in Agriculture FAA Flight Restrictions

Thus far, the site features more than 250 articles covering these topics. As of the middle of November, it had racked up 12,583 unique visits from 8,508 unique visitors and 21,473 page views, many from journalists who went on to spread the news further.

AUVSI continued to educate the public in 2013 about the benefits of unmanned systems and robotics. We had more than 653 media hits, vs. 364 for all of the year before, and more than 470 interview requests. At AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems 2013, we had more than 400 media representatives from the United States and around the world. In addition to the trade press, a number of mainstream outlets covered the show, including 60 Minutes, the Washington Post, NPR, BBC, German Television, LA Daily News, Fox and CBS affiliates, Popular Science, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, The Guardian Newspaper, Reuters Television, Washington Post, Newsweek/Daily Beast.
