Alphavalue / Divacons| Telefónica Tech has teamed up with Chinese company EHang, which produces electric aerial vehicles with vertical take-off and landing capabilities for transporting passengers and cargo without a pilot, to boost urban air mobility in Europe and Latin America, the operator said in a statement.
Telefónica Tech will contribute its 5G connectivity and private network capabilities to the project to enhance the “safety and efficiency” of this type of mobility and expand and export “intelligent solutions with unmanned aerial vehicles”.
