Cybersecurity company Acronis has earned a reputation for backing up knowledge and cybersecurity, and is now expanding its success by an announcement of a strategic and technical partnership with Airspeeder, the world’s first series of electric flying car racing scheduled for 2021. Force box coverage for “sprinters” provided by using LiDAR and commercial vision generation to help you avoid in-flight collisions. This force box coverage for “closed but safe” races at speeds of up to 120 mph deserves to increase the progression of such defense measures in the emerging sector of electric takeoff and vertical landing (eVTOL).
The eVTOL sector, with the big ones from Airbus, Daimler, Hyundai, Toyota and Uber, can bring a mobility revolution with the takeoff of electric taxis. However, for now, the flying cars in the Airspeeder racing series are more like giant drones. Remote controlled multicopters designed for speed and agility. Potentially capable of reaching speeds of up to 120 mph, those speed racers, as they are called, can become the control platform for eVTOL vehicles.
The Airspeeder Mk4, which reached the final stages of development, was reported to be powered by 4 24Kw motors and 500Kw interchangeable batteries, weighing 250 kg. If this is the case, it may offer more power than F1 racing cars. .
Motorsports has a historically complex automotive generation if you’ll forgive the inevit pun. It was hoped that with DHL investment and corporate global monetary control Equals, as well as Acronis, parent company Alauda would do the same through flying car racing for eVTOL vehicles.
With remote pilots pilots, a group made up of an elite combination of aviation, motorsport and e-sports people, Airspeeder promises to verify human generation and skills.
“At Airspeeder, we are creating a state-of-the-art engine sport,” Matt Pearson, founder of Alauda and Airspeeder, said, mentioning Acronis’ “extraordinary culture of good technological fortune in Formula One and Formula E. “While it is undeniable to infer Acronis’ participation as undeniable back-office data coverage, in fact it is much more than that, according to Acronis Senior Vice President Jan-Jaap Jager. Acronis “will help Airspeeder with its functionality on the track and back office”. Jager said, “We look to the future to keep the promise of a true next-generation technical and sporting proposal. “
The generation delivery will be assisted by the wife of cybersecurity response provider Acronis, Teknov8, and will help manage live knowledge flows that are essential for the security of this new sport, heralded as the Formula One sky. ensure that the safety of The Formula One knowledge produced the race itself and, equally important for such a competitive company, the vehicle’s functionality testing. Knowledge of telemetry will be important for those participating in the Airspeeder series, perhaps even more than the ground equivalent given the additional risks presented by the 120 MPH flight.
Airspeeder said in a press release that the partnership between Acronis and Teknov8 would ensure that a race or flight was never compromised by gaining terathrough of knowledge transmission between speed racers and technical teams. the past discussed near and racing, but also to ensure that digitally explained no-fly zones are safe to protect viewers.
