Simon Miller (left), assistant research professor at The Pennsylvania State University, explains the controls of a Skydio X2D unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to Electrician’s Mate 2nd Class Somantha Him-Gross of the Navy’s Surge Maintenance program aboard the Self Defense Test Ship while underway off the coast of Port Hueneme, California, during the Repair Technology Exercise, or REPTX, on Aug. 29. The UAV demonstration simulated scanning the ship for battle damage. Miller also captured overhead images of the ship to stitch together into a 2D map known as an orthomosaic. REPTX was held at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD), and the test ship is a command asset. (U.S. Navy photo by Eric Parsons/Released)
