aiaa 2022 las vegasIf you’re designing what comes next in flight—from smarter maintenance systems to autonomous air platforms—the 2025 AIAA AVIATION Forum is where your work takes flight. 

From July 21–25, the aviation community touches down in Las Vegas for one of the most comprehensive events in aerospace innovation—co-located with ASCEND 2025, the premier interdisciplinary space event focused on accelerating humanity’s off-world future.

Radeus Labs will be there—at Booth #723—showcasing rugged, production-ready computing solutions purpose-built for high-performance aerospace and defense environments. Whether you’re refining a prototype or launching a next-gen platform, we’re here to help you build the systems your mission demands.


From Concept to Reality: A Hub for Aerospace Innovators

AFCEA West 2025Organized by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), the AVIATION Forum is where visionary ideas collide with engineering expertise. Nearly 3,800 aviation and space professionals will gather to bridge the gap between next-gen aircraft and real-world deployment, and to accelerate both in-atmosphere and off-world progress through hands-on collaboration.

One of the hallmarks of the event is its deep technical exchange. With nearly 1,300 technical papers presented by researchers, students, and industry experts—and awards given for the best student-led presentations—the forum is a breeding ground for fresh thinking and actionable breakthroughs.

Bringing together over 75 aerospace exhibitors in a focused, high-impact environment, the show is a prime opportunity for engineers, program leaders, and innovators to connect and explore the technologies shaping the future of flight and space exploration.

Conference Spotlight: A Glimpse of Key Topics

Writing a Grant Proposal for Dispatch or Public Safety Gear? Focus on These 3 Things

You know the drill: your department needs new equipment now, but the budget, or the grant, only goes so far. That’s why so many emergency services teams apply for what they can get today, with plans to expand when more funding comes through.

The good news? Funders are often open to a phased approach, as long as you spell it out clearly. When you show that your gear can scale with your needs, you’re not just being budget-savvy. You’re showing long-term thinking, operational resilience, and responsible use of public funds.

In this post, we’ll walk you through the three most important things to include in your grant proposal, so you can get the equipment you need now, and build on it later.

Why R&D Hardware Choices Can Make (or Break) Your Project

If you’re part of an engineering team, you know the story too well: the prototype works fine, but once you move toward production, everything starts to fall apart. The part you counted on goes end-of-life. Licensing costs balloon out of nowhere. Thermal issues show up in the field that you never saw in the lab. Suddenly your carefully built timeline slips, and you’re the one explaining delays and budget overruns to leadership.

The hard truth? Most of these headaches can be traced back to hardware decisions made early in R&D.

Couldn’t Make It to MODSIM World 2025? Here’s What You Missed!

Earlier this month, innovators and defense leaders gathered in Norfolk, VA for MODSIM World 2025, an event dedicated to modeling, simulation, and digital twin technologies. For those who couldn’t attend, here’s a look at the standout themes, conversations, and connections that shaped this year’s conference.
