Concurrently with low-rate aircraft production in Marina, Joby is actively evaluating proposals from a number of states to support the construction of its Phase 1 production facility.
Researchers have created a novel wearable system, which allows the operator to undertake inspection and measurement tasks by using their hands as manipulators in a low-cost system.
The Mayhem system will use a scramjet engine to generate thrust, propelling the vehicle across long distances at speeds greater than Mach 5.
France, Germany and Spain have given the go-ahead for the Future Combat Air System's next phase of development in which Dassault Aviation, Airbus, Indra and Eumet build a demonstrator.
The sensors are based on magnetic materials and amorphous ferromagnetic microwires capable of reacting to electromagnetic radiation and will yield valuable information on the condition of the part at any time.
The hybrid-electric aircraft preserves the range/payload capability of the Grand Caravan, and in fact can fly farther than the Grand Caravan with eight passengers. Maximum range is beyond 1,000 miles.
The 100,000 square-foot facility will initially house research and development of laser metal deposition with wire (LMD-w) additive manufacturing technology for large-scale titanium aerostructures.
Random vibration acceptance testing for all the cruise motor controllers for the X-57 have taken place to make sure that all the systems stay functional while they endure the vibration environment expected during flight.
The processor technology is part of a digital, open-systems design that decreases maintenance and lifecycle costs while increasing reliability. The processors include extra payload slots to expand mission capabilities.
A new five-year deal will see Infosys support Spirit to secure efficient structural designs and robust certification process. The aim is to use technologies like artificial intelligence to accelerate product development.
With the expansion of Joby's contract, the US Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps have all now identified eVTOL aircraft as a critical area of interest.
Skyfarer, Assemtron, KITAU Robotics and Holscot Fluoropolymers now join more than 200 other companies from across the region that have benefited from the scheme, which is due to run until summer 2023.
Ampaire conducted the first Eco Caravan hybrid powertrain ground runs in April, with plans to fly the aircraft in the second half of the year. The target for STC approval is 2024.
Supernal is partnering with Hyundai's automotive designers to develop its eVTOL for manufacturability and wide-spread public acceptance, providing passengers with the security and comfort they find in their own cars.
