urban air mobility (UAM)
Urban Air Mobility (UAM) refers to the use of small, electric aircraft to transport people and goods within urban areas. This innovative mode of transportation aims to alleviate traffic congestion on roads and provide faster, more efficient travel options. UAM vehicles, often referred to as eVTOLs (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing aircraft), are designed to operate in densely populated environments.
UAM is part of a broader trend towards smart city solutions, integrating advanced technologies like autonomous systems and air traffic management to ensure safety and efficiency. As cities grow, UAM has the potential to reshape urban transportation, making it more sustainable and accessible.
