Invited and Solicited…Tempest answered a call from the FAA, along with the Lone Star UAS Center of Excellence and Innovation (one of seven FAA testing facilities). The purpose of the whitepaper was outlining a solution for the “one pilot to many drones” regulations. The result? The FAA has solicited a final proposal (which if accepted will result in a contract) to create a solution using Harbinger’s drone battalion control system. We also sent a letter of intent to NOAA for proposing a wildfire prevention solution using Harbinger. As you know, the root of Tempest’s mission is in wildfire prevention (after the home town for our founder – Paradise, CA burned in 2018… spawning the founding of Tempest). The result: Tempest was invited to submit the proposal with a “likely” acceptance. |
