بالصور.. نجاح أول تجربة لطائرة ذاتية القيادة في نقل راكب بالصين

أعلنت شركة "إي هانج" الصينية نجاح أول تجربة عملية لطائرتها ذاتية القيادة EHang 184، بعد إقلاعها في أول رحلة توصيل

أعلنت شركة “إي هانج” الصينية نجاح أول تجربة عملية لطائرتها ذاتية القيادة EHang 184، بعد إقلاعها في أول رحلة توصيل لها في سماء العاصمة الصينية هونج كونج ووصولها لوجهتها بسلام.

وحسبما أفادت صحيفة “ديلي ميل” البريطانية، فقد أخضعت الشركة الصينية الطائرة التي عرفت باسم “التاكسي الطائر”، لأكثر من ألف اختبار كفاءة قبل تجربتها بشكل عملي مع وجود راكب حقيقي على متنها.

وأفادت الصحيفة بأن الطائرة ذاتية القيادة EHang 184 تصل سرعتها لـ130 كيلومترا في الساعة، وهي تعمل بطريقة بسيطة بضغط الراكب على شاشة التحكم باللمس بداخلها على الوجهة التي يرغب في الوصول لها لتنقله إليها.

Chinese drone maker EHang has released incredible footage of its 80mph driverless megadrone whizzing passengers around China for the first time (pictured)

The company says it has been testing the EHang 184 megadrone with 'thousands of test flights' with human passengers over the last four years and this new footage is the first evidence of the craft in action

The quadcopter has also been tested in various weather conditions including heat, fog, during the night and during Category 7 typhoon gale-force winds, the company says

The company claims it is going to demonstrate the service at Dubai's World Government Summit this month, although it has yet to be officially confirmed. The quadcopter can fly more than 9.3 miles (15km) and has a high-speed cruising speed of 80.7mph (130km/h)

Dubbed EHang 184, the drone is described as the world's first 'Autonomous Aerial Vehicle' for transporting people although it is still not known when the company will make the drone available

The 184 uses multiple independent flight control systems to automatically navigate passengers from point A to point B.

Unveiled at CES in Las Veg as in 2016, the all-electric vehicle has four arms with a total of eight propellers at the end. These systems combine real-time data collected from sensors throughout the flight and automatically plot the fastest and safest route to carry passengers to their destinations

'I think in all of us there is that little kid in all of us that says I want to fly,' said founder George Yan. 'I don¿t want to get a pilot license after five or 10 hours of flying, I want to do it right away. We¿re making that dream happen'

EHang claims to be building the world's first 'Autonomous Aerial Vehicle' for transporting people. 'You know how it feels to sit in a Ferrari? This is 10 times better,' said George Yan, co-founder of Ehang in an interview with DailyMail.com. Pictured is a concept image

EHang is building the world's first 'Autonomous Aerial Vehicle' for transporting people. The company has permission to test the Ehang 184 in Nevada. The rider punches in a destination on a touch screen in front of the passenger seat, then the drone flies there automatically

It takes off and lands vertically, subsequently eliminating the need for runways

EHang also has a command centre that employs people to make sure everything is safe ¿ sort of like an air traffic controller at an airport

EHang will also have a command centre that employs people to make sure everything is safe ¿ sort of like an air traffic controller at an airport. The command centre will monitor every 184 in the air 24/7 and the company plans integrate with existing air traffic controller operations

The EHang is capable of automatically carrying a passenger through the air, simply by entering a destination into its accompanying smartphone app

'I think in all of us there is that little kid in all of us that says I want to fly,' said Yan

'Everything is calculated in the backend to pick the most optimal route for you, so there is no collision with the other drones flying,' said Yan. Pictured is the drone being unveiled in Las Vegas in 2015
