VOLATUS EXPANDS SEAR PROGRAM INTO THE U.S.

Volatus Aerospace Corp. has expanded into the United States with the kickoff of its newest version of the Science Experiential Aerial Research (SEAR) program -- The Litter project.

High school students in Florida began the course this week and will be learning the basics of machine learning, aerial intelligence collection with drones and other essential science disciplines that will help prepare them for future work in aviation, technology and science.

The curriculum focuses on a community-defined issue, in this case litter, to meet national- and state-defined science and math learning outcome requirements.

"We've run the SEAR program now in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and, of course, Manitoba, where we received a $500,000 grant," explained Matt Johnson, director of education for Volatus Aerospace. "In addition to meeting essential curricular outcomes for science, these courses are designed to provide students with hands-on experience with the technology and science so that they can learn what opportunities are out there. Our hope is that it will inspire them to pursue these types of careers as they look to college and beyond."

"Demand for aerial intelligence is not only growing in leaps and bounds but so are the technologies," began Glen Lynch, chief executive officer of Volatus Aerospace. "Tools like remotely piloted aircraft, machine learning and AI are essential to help us quickly, safely and cost-efficiently collect, process, analyze and action terabytes of data. We are going to need to encourage students to pursue these careers to be able to scale and keep up with the demand. The SEAR program gives students a taste of what is out there today and what could be their future -- we are excited to expand this program into the united States."

The program is available across North America and can be tailor made to fit state/provincial curricular requirements in science as well as specific community concerns.
