Symposium: Launch & Recovery of Manned & Unmanned Vehicles from Marine Platforms 2010 Symposium

April 8-9, 2010

8-9 March 2010
Linthicum, Maryland (Baltimore / Washington Corridor)

American Society of Naval Engineers
Maritime Institute of Technology & Graduate Studies (MITAGS)


The 2010 Launch and Recovery Conference of Manned and Unmanned Vehicles from Marine Platforms represents a unique opportunity to also include the vehicles themselves in the discussion and the special interfaces that must exist between the vehicle and the platform. Unmanned vehicles are increasingly integrated into the day-to-day operations of naval and commercial maritime operations, from ocean platform inspection, to search-and-rescue, to surface and antisubmarine warfare. At the same time, the use of small manned vehicles is also on the rise, whether high-speed boats on Coast Guard ships or helicopters on research vessels. The need to operate both manned and unmanned vehicles from the same platform is of increasing importance, and so are the means to quickly and safely launch and recover a wide variety of such vehicles – which are evolving at a rapid pace – is an area of intense research and development in national and international naval, commercial and academic sectors.

Symposium: 9Th International Symposium on Technology and the Mine Problem

May 17-20, 2010

May 17-20, 2010, Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey California

Themes of the conference will address technologies related to mine detection, localzation and neutralization, for applications in mine warfare relating to both port security at home and assured access abroad. Special emphasis will be placed on technologies relating to the use of unmanned systems role in the mine problem.

Areas of particular technological interest for unmanned sysyems include:
- Propulsion energy
- Launch and Recovery
- Autonomy and communications
- Sensors
- Navigation, guidance, and control

UDT is Europe’s only dedicated Undersea Defence Technology conference and exhibition. The event brings together naval procurement specialists, defence scientists and key technology providers for three valuable days of discussion, networking and showcasing new technology.

Demonstration: AUVSI and ONR's 13th International Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Competition

July 13-18, 2010

13-18 July 2010
SSC Pacific TRANSDEC
San Diego, CA, USA

Co-sponsored by the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the goal of this competition is to advance the development of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) by challenging a new generation of engineers to perform realistic missions in an underwater environment. This event also serves to foster ties between young engineers and the organizations developing AUV technologies.
