Air transportation systems and methods

This invention describes a way to control a specific type of air vehicle, one that can both fly and drive on the ground, using hand gestures. It works by creating a detailed digital model of the vehicle and its surroundings, potentially using advanced sensors like LIDAR and radar, and then interpreting specific finger, palm, or hand movements to direct the vehicle's operations. The system uses this model to determine how the vehicle should move based on its current state and environment.

Why it matters: Since 2019, AI advancements in computer vision and sensor fusion have significantly improved hand gesture recognition and real-time 3D modeling. This makes the complex control system for a hybrid air vehicle more feasible.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedComplex air vehicle, advanced sensors, heavy software system.
