Welcome to AIC 2026
2026 International Conference on Aerospace Intelligence and Control
Countdown to the Conference:
☀ About AIC 2026
Amidst the strategic opportunity period characterized by intensifying global competition in aerospace technology and the intelligent transformation of national defense, Aerospace Intelligence and Control are becoming the core support for enhancing aircraft performance. With clustered breakthroughs in AI, autonomous systems, and network communication technologies, traditional flight control is accelerating its evolution towards intelligent perception, autonomous decision-making, and collaborative networking. Aerospace intelligence is deeply reshaping mission planning and health management models, playing a key role in areas such as manned-unmanned teaming, swarm operations, and hypersonic flight, thereby injecting new momentum into the leapfrog development of next-generation aerospace equipment.
The 2026 International Conference on Aerospace Intelligence and Control (AIC 2026), hosted by the Zhejiang Society of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Zhejiang University City College, will be held from August 21-23, 2026, in Hangzhou, China. The conference will primarily focus on research areas such as "Autonomous Control and Intelligent Decision-making for Aircraft," "Low-altitude Traffic and Intelligent Systems," and "Aerospace Science and Technology." It aims to provide an international platform for collaboration and exchange, where experts, scholars, and enterprises in the fields of aerospace intelligence and control can share research outcomes, discuss existing problems and challenges, and explore cutting-edge technologies. The goal is to collectively drive the development of aerospace intelligence and control, address new technological challenges, and serve societal needs. We warmly welcome scholars from around the world to contribute their papers and participate!
We cordially invite you to attend this conference!
