and Other Infrastructure Equipment and Services
Marketing Guide and Directory 2014 Edition

Preface
This Marketing Guide on "Components for Unmanned Vehicles" is a companion volume to a recently published "UAV Marketing Directory" which was devoted to aerial systems. In addition, this report includes not only aerial but also ground, maritime, submarine, and satellite unmanned systems. Over 1,000 companies, organizations such as educational, research, development and testing and economic development organizations are included covering 100 different categories. An index is provided which places companies in various categories. The majority of companies included are component, materials, and subsystems equipment suppliers but also includes companies providing services, consulting, training, publishing, and other infrastructure suppliers. It is essentially a complete source of information on unmanned systems.
Since there is no market study on all the unmanned systems types, a Foreword is included in the report which is taken from the latest version of the DOD Roadmap on Unmanned Systems. This is the only estimate of the unmanned systems market available today. Even though the sequestration and recent budget cuts are now being implemented, the Roadmap does provide a good indication of market trends at least for the government markets.
The data collected and included in this report has been obtained by Information Gatekeepers, Inc. (IGI) from the best sources available including tradeshows, conferences, publications, advertisements, press releases, and internet sources. The index of products has been prepared based on company descriptions provided. Placement of companies in the various categories has been assigned by IGI. Corrections or additions should be forwarded to [email protected].
Being the first directory of its kind, it has included data presented at trade shows, in publications, company reports, and press releases, but many companies probably have been missed. To remedy this situation, Information Gatekeepers plans periodic updates. If your company has been omitted and you would like to be included, send product descriptions, including contact information, to [email protected].

Present Interest in UAVs
An indication of the interest in UAVs is the attendance numbers at the largets trade show devoted to UAVs, as seen in the table above. This interest is growing at an exponential rate based on military use and extensive development of the technology. This growth is expected to continue as the interest shifts from military to commercial applications.
