The UAM can cater to various applications such as passenger transportation, last-mile cargo delivery, emergency and medical aid transportation, food delivery etc. The UAM requires aerial vehicles such as electric vertical take-off & landing (eVTOL) aircraft and delivery drones that can be manned, remotely piloted and autonomous.
Advancements in ‘electric vertical take-off and landing’ (eVTOL) and ‘short take off and landing’ (STOL) technologies are aiding manufactures to develop aerial vehicles that can cater wider range applications, allowing them to enter in new markets. The following figure illustrates the key application areas for UAM.
