“On-demand aviation has the potential to radically improve urban mobility, giving peopleback time lost in their daily commutes,” it wrote. “Uber is close to the commute pain thatcitizens in cities around the world feel. We view helping to solve this problem as core to ourmission and our commitment to our rider base. Just as skyscrapers allowed cities to uselimited land more efficiently, urban air transportation will use three-dimensional airspace toalleviate transportation congestion on the ground.”
“按需航空服务有可能从根本上改善城市的机动性,节省人们浪费在日常通勤上的时间,”白皮书写道。“优步深知世界各地城市居民的通勤痛苦。我们将协助解决这一问题视为我们使命和对乘客承诺的核心。正如摩天大楼可让城市以更高效率利用有限的土地,城市空中交通系统将利用三维空域缓解地面上的交通拥堵。”
Despite this Jetsons-like future vision, many technological hurdles are yet to be overcome,ranging from power requirements and noise to finding safe places for the flying cars to land.
虽然优步描绘了类似《杰森一家》(The Jetsons)的未来愿景,但是从动力需求、噪声到为飞行汽车寻找安全着陆场所,仍有许多技术障碍有待克服。
