Emva kweminyaka eliqela yophuhliso, ekugqibeleni inkampani yaseAsia hayi ikwazile ukufumana imvume kwiNevada Institute of Autonomous Systems (eUnited States) ukuqala ukuvavanya idrone yayo yeteksi, eyaziwa njenge U-Ehang 184, emsebenzini wokuhambisa abantu ngaphakathi kurhulumente uqobo. Njengoko sele kubhengeziwe, enkosi kolu gunyaziso inkampani ikwazile ukufezekisa eyona nto ibalulekileyo yokuba yiyo kuqala ukufumana imvume yokuvavanya idrone ngale njongo.
Ngoku, njengoko kusengqiqweni kwaye kulindelwe, singatsho ukuba oku kugunyaziswa kuyinxalenye kuphela kuba ukwenza iimvavanyo u-Ehang akanayo imvume epheleleyo kodwa kufuneka anike ingxelo ngazo zonke izinto eziza kwenziwa yidrone yeteksi kuvavanyo ngalunye kumagunya aseNevada ngubani oya kuthi azise i-FAA kuqala ukuze ibe yiyo ekugqibeleni enika ukukhanya okuluhlaza okanye ongenelele koku. Ngenxa yoku, inkampani yaseTshayina iyathemba ukuba uqale ukwenza iimvavanyo zokuqala e-United States ekupheleni konyaka we-2016.
Ngokubhekisele enqanaweni, xelela ukuba sithetha ngedrone enkulu ngokuzimela malunga nemizuzu engama-23 ekwaziyo ukuthwala umthwalo omkhulu ukuya kwiikhilogram ezili-100 Ukuhamba ngesantya esiphezulu se-100 km / h. Ngokwemilinganiselo, akukho ngaphantsi kwe-1.50 yeemitha ukuphakama ngeemitha ezi-4 ububanzi kunye nobunzima bokugqibela beekhilogram ezingama-200, ivolumu ekufuneka ihanjiswe ngenxa yombane we-106 kW yamandla ayo ajikelezayo.
Njengeenkcukacha zokugqibela, xelela ukuba sithetha ngeprojekthi evuthiweyo ukusukela, nangona i-FAA ixhalabile malunga nemilinganiselo kunye nobunzima bale drone itekisi ikhethekileyo, inyani kukuba ayikokokuqala kuvavanywa, Ingaphantsi kakhulu iNevada yokuqala, ukuba ise-United States, egunyazisa u-Ehang ukuba avavanye idrone yakhe. Okwangoku xelela ukuba, umzekelo, iinkampani ezinjengeLung Biotechnology azifumananga nto ngaphantsi Iiyunithi ezili-1.000 XNUMX zedrone ukuba isetyenziswe njenge ukuthuthwa okungxamisekileyo kwamalungu kuthungelwano lwezibhedlele kunye namaziko onyango.
