TATTS, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that leverages drones to develop social and employment skills for people on the autism spectrum while building quality 3D products. TATTS is located in the Madison, WI (USA) area and focuses its programming in and around the Madison area.
TATTS offers its programming FREE of charge to its members and does so through the generous donations it receives. TATTS obtained 501(c)(3) status in January, 2018.
With drones and real-time aerial imagery and video, TATTS allows team members to see the world around them from a different perspective. We work on social and employment skills throughout various stages of the process including construction and/or maintenance of the drone fleet, planning and executing missions in the field, and post-processing the imagery and video into high end, desirable products.
Some of the products TATTS team members produce are:
- Video or still shots of a location or event
- Georeferenced imagery
- Orthophotos and digital surface models
- Point clouds
Throughout the entire process we emphasize safety (both for TATTS team members and those in the locations where we are flying), we follow legal requirements and best practices for drone flight (keep the drone within visual line of sight, <400' in altitude, & >5 miles from an airport), and we focus on both the process by which we get there and the end product.

HI Paul! I sent a message via Facebook but I wasn't sure if it would get to you. Your program came up in my Google alerts today, and I read about it with great interest. I'm involved with the local Autism Society, and we're looking for new programs to support in 2015 - and I LOVE what you're doing. I also noticed you thought you may need to charge a fee for 2015 participants... I was thinking that this program might be a great candidate for a community grant and as a 501c3 the Autism Society may be able to help secure one for you for this project so it continues to be easily accessible for families. I'd love to talk about this more. Please get in touch if you'd be interested? I'm at autismsouthcentral@gmail.com Thanks so much -- have a Happy Thanksgiving! ~Danielle Tolzmann

ReplyDeleteDear sirs, hello!
ReplyDeleteI'm Manuel MartÃnez - Director of Communications for Latin America/ DJI.
Please, a Brazilian media (Globo TV) asked me an information about your project. They want to know if you have scientific data regarding how drones have helped autistic children.
Do you have any information regarding, e.g.:
- how drones had contributed to accelerate the social inclusion process in benefit of autistic children (before drones, "X" months; after drones, "Z" months);
- how many children were benefit with TATTS since this project was started?
And would be great if you have contact of physicians and specialists to confirm these data.
Thank you a lot.

DR WILLIAMS CURED 7 YEARS AUTISM
ReplyDeleteI am sharing this testimony for my daughter who suffered autism for 7 years. I am doing this, because I was her mother and caregiver during her dark days and am very happy to share it so that others can be helped through DR WILLIAMS HERBAL MEDICINE. It was a tough a battle for her; I was not actually the one who hard autism, but bearing the burden makes me understand what parents whose children and love with autism go through.
Lesia now 19 and was diagnosed with autism at the age of twelve, for seven years, she fought against her diagnosis. I must admit it was never easy for us as a family; we had to constantly watch her, and answer questions that we couldn’t explain. On several occasions, she asked if she will ever stop having speech delay and get well like her school mates and be the best swimmer she dreamt of becoming. She was a very happy child; and had a ‘normal’ childhood and there was no suggestion that she would later on develop autism.
She refused to accept defeat and fought autism. She religiously kept to her medications in spite of their side effects. We all wanted a cure, so that she can chase her dream and live a normal life like every other child. But the more she takes these medications, the more her school grade drop. She couldn’t concentrate and we noticed that her memory was being severely adversely affected. Each time we went back to the hospital, her medicines were changed to a different one. Seems like, each change of drug brings about change in side effects. After about 6 years on Abilify , Geodon , and other medicines, it seemed the autism started to increase in frequency. I had to make effort to reduce her medicines with plans to eventually stop it all. We found an alternative treatment in homeopathy, which was better than her English drugs. Gradually, I reduced her drugs, and her autism were no longer as frequent as it was as when she was on conventional drugs.
With our little breakthrough with homeopathy treatment, we made further search for natural cure. Fortunately we saw testimonies about herbal medicines which cure autism. We saw a lot of claims though, contacted them and didn’t get a useful reply. Lucky for us, we finally got a reply from Doctor Williams, he directed us to his blog where we saw a lot of information about his herbal medicine . Without further delay I made a purchase for her, I switched her over to it. We had great breakthrough, that in 3 weeks, her autism reduced. After 1 months as Doctor Williams promised , all autism symptoms stopped. It was like a miracle for us. since all this days now Lesia became autism free. Her story is quite lengthy, I hope it also help someone out there.for more information you can email Dr Williams on drwilliams098675@gmail.com
