What We Do

Since our inception in 2004, we have been dedicated to developing fully autonomous drones. Our focus lies in overcoming complex engineering challenges through utilization of machine learning techniques. Through hands-on experience, we provide our members with invaluable technical skills while they are still in university. We collaborate to design, manufacture, and rigorously test our drones while annually representing University of Alberta in national RPAS competitions.

Expect your ideas to come to life as you put in meaningful work that has many applications in today's industry. From software, hardware, R & D and business, there are many places at UAARG where you can fit in!

Currently, we are working on a hybrid plane design which combines the functionality of a quadcopter and a fixed wing plane.

This allows for vertical takeoff and landing along with long flight times.
