Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Watch Dubai Police test its latest gadget -- a flying motorbike
Where in the world do you think the hottest and latest technologies are deployed? Surprisingly, Dubai Police, which is already equipped with Lamborghini patrol cars, self-driving robots, and android officers. Sounds aggressively fast, autonomous and intelligent, doesn’t it?
That’s because this oil-rich dessert gulf emirate is looking to become the happiest city on earth by its Smart Dubai initiative. One of the attempts is Smartbootcamp, which is designed to support innovative companies in the areas like IoT & Connectivity, Urban Automation & Mobility, and Artificial Intelligence. And they are not shy of flying gadgets. Air taxi, a self-flying copter that can carry two passengers for half an hour, is about to debut. And this newly revealed flying motorbike is one of such Vertical Take-off and Landing Aircraft (VTOLs) that can fly a human with its four propellers at a speed of 60km per hour.
No one wants to be chased by a Lamborghini police car on the road and flying motor cop in the air in the desert.
Enjoy reading and thinking what this smart city will be like in 2025.
