ACAS X replaces TCAS II's fixed logic tables with probabilistic optimization, reducing nuisance alerts and enabling collision avoidance for unmanned aircraft in shared airspace.
VectorThe 2002 Überlingen mid-air collision killed 71 people after a crew overrode their TCAS Resolution Advisory - a case study in why RA compliance is an absolute rule.
TowerHow TCAS II lets two airliners coordinate a collision-avoiding climb and descent in seconds, why you always follow the RA, and what comes next.
VectorACAS X replaces TCAS II's 1990s-era lookup table with a real-time dynamic programming algorithm designed for drones, eVTOLs, and modern mixed airspace.
