LuftCar and Neurobotx Sign Partnership to Bring Flying Car to Market

Luft­Car has signed a part­ner­ship agree­ment with Neu­ro­botx to launch its dock­ing and undock­ing eVTOL for com­mer­cial, mil­i­tary and health­care appli­ca­tions out of Orlan­do, Flori­da, hav­ing recent­ly signed with BOSCH to devel­op hydro­gen fuel cell com­po­nents for the EVOTL mar­ket.

Luft­Car CEO Santh Sathya said: “Luft­Car can use Neu­ro­botx XR sim­u­la­tions for test­ing, devel­op­ing and val­i­dat­ing air tran­si­tions to eval­u­ate human fac­tors, com­mu­ni­cate car­go, pas­sen­ger and dis­as­ter relief through dig­i­tal twin defense mis­sion train­ing cam­paigns for air force, navy and marine corps.”

Before found­ing Luft­Car, Santh was head of sys­tems engi­neer­ing at Boe­ing Insi­tu drones and led Mod­el Based Sys­tems Engi­neer­ing and dig­i­tal twin devel­op­ment.

Neu­ro­botx CEO Dr Diana Deca com­ment­ed: “We are thrilled to work with Luft­Car and lever­age our tech­nol­o­gy, mar­ket­ing and busi­ness devel­op­ment abil­i­ties to bring it to mar­ket.

“Mil­lions of users will be able to expe­ri­ence LuftCar’s patent­ed dock­ing mod­el and trav­el long dis­tances, while gen­er­at­ing much need­ed data for pilot train­ing, reg­u­la­to­ry approval, investor and client dili­gence. Our unique neu­ro­mor­phic back­end fits the ener­gy effi­cien­cy demands for EVTOL to become ful­ly hydro­gen-based.

“Our Metapi­lot plat­form is an extend­ed real­i­ty (XR) expe­ri­ence with a neu­ro­mor­phic back­end, hap­tics, and the brain’s nav­i­ga­tion sys­tem. Essen­tial­ly, we are rebuild­ing the pilot brain inside the air­craft.

“We will sim­u­late unique gov­ern­men­tal and com­mer­cial appli­ca­tions to show LuftCar’s unique fea­tures, and part­ner with investors, gov­ern­men­tal and air­line clients, as well as reg­u­la­to­ry approval via our joint NASA part­ner­ships.”

Santh Resumed: “Luft­Car would also demon­strate hydro­gen han­dling, safe­ty and refu­el­ing, VTOL expe­ri­ences to cus­tomers and stake­hold­ers through vir­tu­al real­i­ty. This part­ner­ship is just the begin­ning of the cog­ni­tive meta­verse designed to bridge the retro futur­is­tic dream of fly­ing cars and the actu­al present.”
