In ” China “presented the first in the world passenger drone
The Chinese manufacturer of drones Ehang, which we will one day have already mentioned, at CES 2016 has brought the world’s first fully unmanned aerial taxi. And the most interesting and a little frightening thing here is that they do not need to control.
Inside the cabin of autonomous drones no control other than the tablet. There are no knobs or helm control, no keys, no switches or control panels – the triumph of minimalism, so to speak. To begin flight only need to sit down and define the route on the screen.
«My goal in life was to make flights more, easier and more comfortable”, – informed the head Ehang chausie Hu.
Independent drone has weight 200 kg, 4 folding “hands” and 8 motors and propellers, the size 1447h3866h3899 mm, flight speed of 100 km / h and flight time 23 min., so that last for relatively close to the flight.
The creators claim Ehang 184 that can continue to fly even if one of the power plants declined. The device uses electric motors with total capacity of 106 kilowatts.
However, ceychas there are so many issues in the field of security, and on the part of the legal aspects that do not involve widespread use of similar vehicles are not only in the air, however, and on the tracks.
Unfortunately, there is no word on when it will be possible to see 184 in the sky.
«” After the show at CES, the our objective is to commercialize this product in the next three to four months “, – said the head of the company’s cash EHang Xiao Shan».
