1st Annual Unmanned Systems Symposium and Aerospace Gala

AUVSI will hold a two day symposium on October 24th and 25th at the Hampton Roads Convention Center that will focus on highlighting the existing capabilities as well as the operational shortfalls in the UMS environment in Virginia.

Jim Chapman, one of the scheduled speakers, will address the trust issues that are crucial to creating viable business models for all modes of autonomous systems: air, land, sea. Trust is shaped by our American legal system, which sits at the center of societal acceptance and regulatory approval.  His presentation, “American Justice: The Intersection of Legal Liability and Autonomous Systems,” addresses the way transportation modes have been shaped by our legal system over the last century and a prediction about what the future may hold.
