| 00:00:00 | THE NAVY HAS A WONDERFUL HISTORY OF DISASTER RELATED -- [INAUDIBLE] |
| 00:00:05 | TRANSPORT SUPPLY. |
| 00:00:07 | WHAT YOU SEE THE ROLE OF THE UNMANNED UNDERWATER VEHICLES THEY ARE, FOR? |
| 00:00:13 | >> I THINK, YOU KNOW, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU CAN USE THE UNMANNED UNDERWATER SYSTEMS TO SAMPLE WATER IN THE EVENT OF A DISASTER, NOT UNLIKE WHAT WE SAW IN FUKUSHIMA WHERE AS YOU ALSO IN THE PRESS THERE WERE CONCERNS ABOUT CONTAMINANTS. |
| 00:00:33 | THERE'S NO QUESTION THAT AS YOU CONDUCT A MAJOR HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE OPERATION, WHETHER IT WAS THE TSUNAMI OFF INDONESIA, I RECENTLY RETURNED FROM CHILE WHERE I'VE SPENT SOME TIME WITH, AND THEIR GRAPHIC OFFICE, WHERE THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN SHIFTED SO MUCH AND AS YOU'RE TRYING TO CLOSE AND BRING IN SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF AID, AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE BOTTOM IS LIKE ANYMORE, WHAT THE DEPTHS ARE, I WOULD RATHER TO BE ABLE TO SEND THEM SOME UNMANNED SYSTEMS THAT CAN SENSE THAT BOTTOM, CAN MAP THE BOTTOM, CAN PROVIDE INFORMATION THAT TELLS US WHERE TO GO, WHERE NOT TO GO. |
| 00:01:17 | SO I THINK THAT CAN BE, THAT CAN BE HUGE. |
| 00:01:22 | AND I WOULD SAY THAT THOSE ARE SOME OF THE AREAS THAT SHOW GREAT PROMISE. |
| 00:01:27 | AND QUITE FRANKLY THE TECHNOLOGY IS THERE TODAY TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT. |
| 00:01:34 | THANK YOU. |
| 00:01:36 | YES, SIR, IN THE BACK. |
| 00:01:38 | >> THANK YOU FOR COMING TO SPEAK TO US. |
| 00:01:43 | WE HAVE DEVELOPED AUTONOMOUS ROTORCRAFT. |
| 00:01:44 | I'M INTERESTED IN YOUR THOUGHTS ON PARTICULARLY SHIPBOARD AIRCRAFT, THE TRADE BETWEEN LARGER, MORE CAPABLE, MORE COSTLY AIRCRAFT |
