Abstract	Mark Tischler presented recent and ongoing research work at the Army / NASA Rotorcraft Division (Ames Research Center). Work is divided roughly equally between manned and unmanned systems. In the manned area, work focuses on improving the handling qualities of the legacy helicopter fleet with focus on the low speed / hover regime in poor visibility. In the unmanned research area, much of the effort is on the PALACE program, that is developing technologies for autonomous landing in a non-cooperative environment using machine vision. Dr. Tischler concluded with a review of ongoing work to advance state-of-the-art control system design and simulation tools.
