Lots of people using the word 'swarm' at the moment, when they really mean 'wave' or 'barrage'. 'Swarming' is different to just flying lots of aircraft at the same time. Here's something I wrote 5 years ago... williamsfoundation.org.au/post/swarmin... @aspi-org.bsky.social

Swarming it ain’t – Keirin Joyce

We are delighted to welcome Keirin Joyce back. In this piece, Keirin calls for greater clarity and sobriety when discussing swarming.

I'm excited for #Avalon next week: The pinnacle of 🇦🇺 #UAS/#Drone industry gathering! I wrote this 👇 last year, but haven't posted about it yet. Stoked to have #ASPI and #AusAirForce support to write this opinion piece for the ANZ Defence Directory 2025.

Drone-in-a-box was going wild at @XPONENTIALshow Europe, and it’s about time! DIAB aims to put drones anywhere they can be connected, to be operated remotely in centralised locations. Here’s a selection of pics of systems on display at #XPoEurope2024 to inspire your imagination.

Coolest thing at #XPo: #DefendEye, a tube-launched, disposable, AI search drone. 249g, 10 minutes, eyes in the sky with image detect on board with smartphone cameras. Easy to put it back in the case and then it charges by USB. @warinthefuture.bsky.social @fmcl24.bsky.social @magtravf.bsky.social

2nd Coolest thing at #XPo: #RheinBahn autonomous bus. Driven (pun intentional) by a bus driver shortage, #RheinBahn of Germany is leaning into autonomous public transport buses. They’re 50% more expensive than a standard bus, but they’re needed, so the business case is strong.

Two 🇦🇺's in a European sea of 250 passionate #drone experts... Filipe and I representing #AAUS #UNSWCanberra #QUT and #CASA at the #EuropeanDroneForum2025 #EDF2025 with #UAVDACH and #AUVSI #XPONENTIAL Europe!

Proud to have represented #AAUS and #UNSWCanberra at the #AUVSI #XPONENTIAL Europe in #Dusseldorf! Two great 🇦🇺 companies here exhibiting: #CubePilot and #HargraveTech - some of the best GNC and e-powertrain tech on the market!

Will AI take our jobs? An interesting paradox in bus driving… I was at #XPONENTIAL Europe recently and took the opportunity to look into the #Rheinbahn AI buses being developed here in Europe. Full thoughts on my LinkedIn post: www.linkedin.com/posts/keirin...

3rd Coolest thing at #XPONENTIAL Europe: #CASEVAC drone from 🇩🇪’s #AVILUS. They’re already into 10’s of hours of flight test. Game-changing for Mass Casualty #MassCas events in the future. #XPoEurope2024 #AUVSI #AAUS @fmcl24.bsky.social @magtravf.bsky.social @warinthefuture.bsky.social

"the ADF’s FPV #droneracing pilots have remained undefeated...The pilots’ success demonstrates how competitive military sports can be utilised to advance dual-use technology and promote #STEM within the next generation..." I'm stoked to get this piece out... Tell me what you think in the comments?

My time as the #AusAirForce Fellow to the @ASPI-org is done: What a year! What an experience! In the same week I wrapped up, the findings of the Varghese report have come out. One recommendation was that there should be more secondments between departments and think tanks...

"Australia 🇦🇺 doesn’t have the privilege of investing endlessly in innovative ideas without progressing to scale production. We need to invest in the right innovations, those that demonstrate ability to go from ideas to production to scale rapidly."

‘“Listening to new options”, according to a senior civilian advisor, is a key piece of the US Air Force process of force redesign. One of those options is using the fighter-like drones that will come from the Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program,' writes Bill Sweetman.

Last week at the @NSWBusiness #SydneyDroneSummit I heard from @WarintheFuture , @OleksandraUNSW, @yurasak and @aaus_live industry, for 140 attendees, about the critical role of #drones and the International Drone Coalition. Big issues, huge opportunities. #SlavaUkraini
