Joby Aviation to deliver eVOTL air taxis to the U.S. Air Force and demonstrate logistic capabilities

• Urban Air Mobility uses small, highly automated aircraft to carry passengers or cargo at lower altitudes, to avoid traffic congestion.  
• The development of UAM vehicles is expected to accelerate over the next decade. Vehicle manufacturers have begun testing vehicles, and ecosystem participants are collaborating on developing a robust regulatory framework.

• Aerospace and Defense developers are starting to use the technology of autonomous vehicles and autonomous robots.   
• This technology would help make timely decisions in critical situations such as the battlefield using advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. 
• Autonomous aircraft and defense tanks are being produced for the battlefield.

• Another technology gaining traction in the aerospace and defense sector is the predictive maintenance of aircraft, battle vehicles, and tanks using machine learning and predictive analytics. 
• These technologies would enable efficient maintenance of the vehicles so that breakdowns and unwanted circumstances can be avoided.

• Exoskeletons are computer-controlled devices that can increase a man’s load-carrying capacity, mobility, and physical endurance by counteracting overstress on the lower back and legs. 
• The technology essentially is a wearable robot that helps with various defense activities and the loading and unloading of aircraft.
