This self-flying car concept is taking internet by storm

New innovations in science are multiplying with the passage of time. Nobody knows what the world will exactly look like in the coming years. But one thing is for sure that this world is going to transform completely into a digital world.

Aircraft manufacturing company, Airbus has partnered with an auto engineering company, Italdesign, to materialize one such idea which is “seamless, multi-modal and fully electronic urban mobility”.

This idea has been named as Pop-Up. Pop-Up will be connected with an application. The Pop.Up vehicle combines the flexibility of a small two-seater ground vehicle with the freedom and speed of a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) air vehicle, thus bridging the automotive and aerospace domains.

It is a system with the ability to fly the vehicle out of traffic congestion into airspace. Both ground and air transportation are self-piloted.

Passengers will have to only relax and enjoy the journey as an Artificial Intelligence platform will manage the trips offering passengers multiple optimized choices of transport combinations to match their travel preferences.

This system will largely help people get out of ever-increasing traffic mess as tackling the issue of traffic has become greatly concerning for mega cities. Even over-laping flyovers are unable to cater to this issue with the rapidly increasing population. However, Pop.Up system promises to deliver to this need.

“During the 87th Geneva International Motor Show (on March 09), Italdesign and Airbus world-premiered Pop.Up, the first modular, fully electric, zero emission concept vehicle system designed to relieve traffic congestion in crowded megacities,” said an official press release.

“Pop.Up envisages a modular system for multi-modal transportation that makes full use of both ground and airspace,” it added.

The Airbus release said, “Pop.Up’s modus operandi is simple: passengers plan their journey and book their trip via an easy-to-use app. The system automatically suggests the best transport solution – according to user knowledge, timing, traffic congestion, costs, ridesharing demands – joining either the air or ground module or other means of transportation to the passenger capsule, and following passengers’ preferences and needs.”
