Remote ID

FAA officials have been steadfast in their claims that a universal remote identification (Remote ID) system is needed, and plenty others have mentioned that it is critical for the industry at large to move forward. Creating a Remote ID solution that answers the simple question of, “who’s operating that drone?” will help everyone become familiar and comfortable with the technology to open up countless opportunities with it. This session will explore what the ultimate Remote ID solution should look like and what it will mean for the entire industry to see it enabled.
