# New Features: Collision Avoidance Sensing (CAS) and minor improvements

We are excited to announce our latest FlytBase release, which enhances situational awareness during BVLOS operations with our new feature: Collision Avoidance Sensing (CAS). CAS enables your drone to detect obstacles in real-time using its vision and infrared sensing systems, allowing it to identify objects and stop at a predetermined braking distance. Additionally, we have made improvements to the Flight Logs.

Collision Avoidance Sensing (CAS): Configure Collision Avoidance Sensing (CAS) for your drone through the DJI Pilot 2 app by setting the warning and braking distances. The drone will detect obstacles in real-time and avoid collisions.

1. Enhanced Operational Safety: The drone will stop at the configured braking distance if any obstacle is detected, ensuring safety during autonomous operations.
2. Improved Situational Awareness: With the Navigation Display showing real-time obstacle data, operators can manually control the drone on the FlytBase dashboard without any worries.

Here's the [documentation ](https://docs-dji.flytbase.com/device-management/new-collision-avoidance-sensing-cas)to learn more.

**Flight Logs Improvements:**

1. Added more visibility to the overview section for scenarios where the Dock and the Drone go offline during a flight.

This update aims to improve your drone's operational safety and your situational awareness during flights. In case you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to <support@flytbase.com>.
