Currently, most electric drones are limited to rather short flight times. Also, in order to maintain radio contact with their operator, they must stay within line of sight. A new Honeywell system, however, is intended to address these limitations.

Following the reveal of its impressive 7-seat eVTOL jet back in March, Lilium has announced that the flight control systems and avionics for the futuristic air taxi will be provided by aerospace firm Honeywell.

​If an electronic device containing sensitive information were to fall into the wrong hands, it would be good if there were a way of remotely disabling it. That's why scientists have developed a method of vaporizing electronic circuits, without laying a hand on the actual device.

NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center and Honeywell have flight tested a cockpit display that allows pilots to visualize the location of sonic booms before they occur. With this knowledge, aircraft can change course and minimize the boom over populated areas.

Honeywell has announced a new thermostat, Lyric, that tracks the user's location via their smartphone and adjusts the temperature of their home accordingly. It figures out when a household is empty and when residents are on their way home. Users can expect reduced energy usage and costs.

A discovery by the Sustainable Bioenergy Research Consortium (SRBC) that desert plants fed by seawater produce biofuel more efficiently than other well-known feedstocks could help alleviate concerns surrounding the use of valuable arable land for such purposes.

Three DARPA-sponsored research teams have developed the world's smallest vacuum pumps.

UK-based bargain airline easyJet has thrown its weight behind the development of an electric taxiing system in a bid to cut its fuel consumption and enhance its environmental credibility.

This week Honeywell's Green Jet Fuel joined the race to the Paris air show to become the first biofuel to power a transatlantic flight.

The Honeywell Windgate wind turbine is a compact, wind-powered generator that the manufacturer says can create more power with less wind than other types of wind turbines.

Honeywell's Prestige HD programmable thermostat features a full-color, high-definition touchscreen and built-in wireless capability.
