Sensis has been awarded the Robert J. Collier Trophy as a result of its innovative work on Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B).  The Robert J. Collier Trophy, annually awarded by the National Aeronautic Association (NAA), honors companies for “the greatest achievement in aeronautics or astronautics in America, with respect to improving the performance, efficiency, and safety of air or space vehicles.” Sensis has been committed to the ADS-B concept since its inception, providing both standalone ADS-B sensors as well as ADS-B capability embedded in every multilateration sensor that the company produces. A pioneer in developing and implementing ADS-B, Sensis fielded the industry’s first operational ADS-B transceivers for both the Mode S Extended Squitter and Universal Access Transceiver data links in Australia in 2004 and Alaska in 2005, respectively.  The firm has more than 1,300 sensors deployed worldwide,
