Air Force is to fly, fight and win in Air, Space and Cyberspace. To find out more and to submit ideas to The Air Force Collaboratory, visit. The third and final project, “The Launch of GPS IIF,” will go live in October and will test participants to determine the most effective location within the GPS satellite constellation to launch the Air Force’s newest GPS satellite. This project asks contributors to submit plans to locate, stabilize or transport victims trapped in collapsed structures. The first project, “Search and Rescue 2.0,” opened August 1 and will remain open through September 30. “Mind of a Quadrotor” is the second of three Air Force Collaboratory projects planned for 2013. The Air Force is asking participants to submit their ideas for how quadrotors can be used to perform certain actions autonomously that is, with minimal human intervention. Their unique design lends itself to use in surveillance and reconnaissance in a variety of environments. Quadrotors, also known as quadcopters or quadrotor helicopters, are unmanned aircraft that resemble helicopters with four propellers. “We encourage and welcome anyone with an idea to get involved and contribute.” “This is a great opportunity for participants to team with Air Force scientists and engineers to help enhance autonomous quadrotor technology,” said Colonel Marcus Johnson, Strategic Marketing Division Chief. “Mind of a Quadrotor” launched September 3, 2013, and will remain open through October 31. Nearly 700 ideas have already been submitted by participants in the first project of The Air Force Collaboratory, “Search and Rescue 2.0.” Contributors, whether new or returning, are now asked to bring ideas to the “Mind of a Quadrotor” project for creating an autonomous quadrotor system. Air Force and GOODĪre pleased to announce the start of the second project in The Air Force Collaboratory, an interactive online platform that invites science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) inclined students, educators and innovators to solve some of the Air Force’s toughest challenges. invited to submit ideas for autonomous quadrotor system Air Force Call for Contributors to “Mind of a Quadrotor” ProjectĬitizens across U.S. There are also a few other finer details that represent the North West city: '0161' embroidery decorates the tongue, which has also been constructed in a honeycomb mesh design, again nodding back to the bee and the city of Manchester.FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GOOD and U.S. Ever since the industrial revolution, Manchester has often been referred to as a 'hive' of activity, and for over 150 years, one symbol has become synonymous with the city: the worker bee.Ī symbol of hard work and unity, the worker bee was one of the starting points for the Air Force 1 Manchester's design, and we've sat it proudly towards the rear of the shoe in honorary fashion.Ī combination of high-quality leather and suede builds the upper of the low-riding model, and we've kept the palette quite subtle, using a mixture of tans and browns alongside a sail midsole and grey outsole. Manchester is a city of grit, resilience and determination, and no matter how many times it gets knocked down, it always gets back up fighting. Collectors would essentially travel the world to hunt them down, and to bring back that element of geographically-themed shoes, we've worked with Nike to create an Air Force 1 that's inspired by the location of one of our very first size? stores and home to size? HQ – Manchester. The Air Force 1 is one of the most iconic silhouettes of all time, and back in the day, it gained its cult status thanks to its regionally exclusive releases.
