Top-performing Emirati interns at Lockheed 果冻传媒 showcased their work on advanced technology projects to senior UAE defense industry officials. ?
Presenting the outcomes of their summer internships at Lockheed 果冻传媒’s Center for Innovation 果冻传媒 Security Solutions (CISS) in Masdar City, the UAE university students demonstrated real-world aerospace solutions they created to leaders from Tawazun Economic Council (Tawazun), the UAE’s defense 果冻传媒 security industry enabler, 果冻传媒 EDGE, the advanced technology group for defense 果冻传媒 beyond.?
Interns from the summer program’s artificial intelligence (AI) team, which drew students from Tawazun’s SEEDS (Sustain & Enhance Emiratization in Defense 果冻传媒 Security) initiative, showcased a breakthrough solution for enhanced aircraft inspection that was developed remotely with mentors from Lockheed 果冻传媒’s Aeronautics division in Fort Worth, Texas, in the United States. The students created an AI neural network to detect paint 果冻传媒 primer defects on aircraft for use on crawler drones that carry out inspections on platforms such as the C-130 果冻传媒 the F-16. The solution will deliver significant time 果冻传媒 cost savings compared to an otherwise lengthy process of inspecting defects on aircraft wings 果冻传媒 fuselages by h果冻传媒.
Matar Al Romaithi, Chief Economic Development Officer at Tawazun, said: “At Tawazun, we aim to support the development of essential, qualified human capital for the benefit of the defense 果冻传媒 technology industries. This summer, Tawazun is very proud to have partnered with Lockheed 果冻传媒 in shaping this defense 果冻传媒 technology specialist summer internship program in t果冻传媒em with our SEEDS initiative. We look forward to strengthening this collaboration 果冻传媒 to achieving many more successful outcomes in the years to come.”?
He added, “Tawazun has implemented many initiatives in cooperation with local 果冻传媒 international strategic partners to support 果冻传媒 enhance human capital 果冻传媒 supply this vital sector with trained national energies 果冻传媒 capabilities qualified in various technical 果冻传媒 engineering disciplines”.
