ThunderDrone Rapid PrototypingEventI 5 September – 3 November2017

SOFWERX Rapid PrototypingEvents 1. High intensity - short duration collision event designed to generate leapsin capabilities 2. Apply innovative thinking to existing or envisioned voids and create “proof of theory, proof of concepts” 3. Collaborative across all sectors – defense, industry and academia

I. Swarms: building and controlling (3, 33, 333, 3003) II. Platforms: identify or build the best of breed III. Effects: apply synergistically across the effect ThunderDrone landscape (non-kinetic/kinetic) RPE IV. Data Science: quantitative insight across the entire lifecycle (design, build, operate, and assess)
