How Urban Air Mobility is getting ready for passengers: the NTU Singapore case
Singapore’s NTU flew its eVTOL prototypes in Germany. See what it means for urban air mobility, and why safety starts in flight control.
This project enables the creation of a system to detect and extinguish fires. Embention uses UAV / UAS / RPAS for its trials, and the prototype testing has provided successful results. It was presented in the category of youth companies, but his initiative was greatly appreciated by the responsible for organizing the competition and the project was incorporated into the general category. The change could not be better. It ended up getting the award for best project that is awarded on stage at the Day of the Entrepreneur in Valencia. Embention Intelligent Systems SL, driven with the support of CEEI Elche, added another victory after getting major awards earlier.
The company focuses on high aerospace technology, working with UAV, more popularly known as drones. This company was awarded with the best project using unmanned aircraft used for fire detection. At the same time it is developing another system for control and suppression – patent pending – which would be a significant step forward in this sector.
David Benavente, director of Embention, says: “A helium airship pilot automatically goes supplied with the cameras incorporating images of the area in which we are acting to detect if there is risk of fire. We use the system “mobile phone network”.
Exciting start for the initiative identified as best project
Initial results of the tests already carried out by the members that make up the company are more than exciting. “The flights we have done so far have gone pretty well, although we are under development”, David Benavente said.
Especially when it is seeking low cost UAV / UAS, because of the work they do, they should be single-use items.
The recognition of his work as entrepreneurs and businessmen of Valencia means a boost to stay on the line marked. “We are very happy porque everything helps, and we are willing to continue working”, said the director of Embention.
