Techno- Report #53 - Nexus the first Flying TaxisteemCreated with Sketch.

Hi Steemit family!

We've all seen fiction movies that show what life would be like in the future and almost all highlight flying vehicles, most of those movies were made in the 1980s and earlier, I can mention some legendary as 2001 odyssey in space that was undoubtedly a great inspiration for later films such as star wars or perhaps a more current as is back to the future where we could appreciate the flying car a DeLorean DMC-12 that practically became famous thanks to its appearance in this saga, those films were set in that they went from 2000 to 3000 approximately, the most ironic of all is that in the twentieth century and there is still the first flying car.

That's why I present one of the top innovations of the moment and that was presented at CES 2019 is a flying car that promises to be the first of its kind, it is an electric hybrid taxi that has called under the name of Nexus manufactured by the company Bell.

Although this design is conceptual Bell assures that by 2024 could launch the first fleet of Nexus to market, the company Uber is associated with Bell for the development of this taxi that the company plans to offer as air service.

Within this flying taxi can enter a maximum of four passengers plus a pilot, perhaps the most complicated part of designing is the engine that propelled by the air to this taxi, in the design presented at CES 2019 can appreciate 4 fans that will be responsible for raising the air vehicle, there are still many things to design such as flight controls and perhaps the most important of all the legal framework that will allow you to circulate with a route established within the cities, There are still no regulations for this type of transport because they simply do not exist but if this revolutionary design materializes a new special law could be put in place for this type of flying cars that would mark the beginning of a dream that we know until now through movies.

This means an unprecedented challenge to promote initiatives in this field that commercially is even profitable to invest at this moment where no one bets on something that will be part of our day to day in a few years, Uber is one of those companies that under the concept of eVTOL plans to offer air taxi services especially for suburban areas and urban points somewhat distant.

Another extra point is the use of electricity with fossil energy this is vital for the sustainable development of new technologies committed to less polluting emissions with a view to completely convert the system into only electric which would be fantastic.

source

Now if you can imagine the Uber Air service, you just send a message and in a few minutes, you can be picked up by a flying taxi. Fascinating, isn't it?

source

If this proposal materializes the other companies that try to enter the business would be a little difficult, Bell has been developing for at least 5 years this model that will be part of the airline taxi line of the largest company of taxi services.

source

So it is only a matter of time to appreciate if it really materializes or remains as other projects that have never taken off, but to be presented at CES 2019 and promise to technology experts and attendees that the first test flight will be next year and that in 2024 will be flying legally in the air then sounds great news.
