Autonomy Takes Flight via Simulation
While self-driving cars are already a reality, the aerospace industry has been slower to develop fully autonomous systems for aircraft. There are a number of reasons, including the high cost and long time frames involved in testing and verifying the software and systems that deliver autonomy. However, closed-loop capabilities from Ansys are now helping aerospace leaders develop and verify systems for vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicles — the first step toward the launch of truly autonomous aircraft.
