On Monday, an electric autonomous aerial vehicle (AAV) took off with two passengers at the Digital China Summit in southeast China's Fuzhou city.
Passengers only need to press one button to instruct the vehicle for a set destination. 4G and 5G technologies are also applied to ensure smooth communication between the AAV and the ground control center.
The AAV, aka drone taxi, is developed by Chinese company Ehang, which builds drones large enough to carry human passengers. It seeks to make safe, autonomous and eco-friendly air mobility accessible to everyone.
