DRIFT

Michigan State University Drone Research and Innovative Flight Technology (DRIFT) is an award-winning student research group making profound progress in autonomous drone technology. With thousands of design and flight hours, DRIFT continues to build a strong reputation as a reliable platform for young engineers to apply and refine their technical skills. As a 2x NASA USRC recipient, DRIFT is expanding its roots to enrich the educational experience of countless students while continuing to develop cutting edge solutions for vertical take-off and landing vehicles. With new research on the horizon the DRIFT organization is continuing to expand while adding more projects to its scope. The team started with a NASA USRC project and now have received a new grant for new research along with the team taking their talents to participate in XPRIZE Rainforest. While expanding drone interest at MSU this team is also dedicated to teach young engineers to become experts in the field. With the next project for DRIFT coming up the team is looking for sponsors to help reach our goals.
