Santa Cruz, CA, Aug 26, 2024 — Joby Aviation, Inc. (NYSE:JOBY), a next-generation aviation company, today announced that it demonstrated autonomous logistics aircraft operations in an evolving mission environment, in partnership with the U.S. Air Force during the 'Agile Flag 24-3' exercise.
加利福尼亞州聖克魯斯,2024年8月26日——下一代航空公司Joby Aviation, Inc.(紐約證券交易所代碼:JOBY)今天宣佈,它與美國空軍合作在 「敏捷旗幟24-3」 演習中展示了自動後勤飛機在不斷變化的任務環境中的作業。
During the exercise, Joby's team, which includes the autonomy division of Xwing acquired by Joby in June of this year, operated a fully autonomous Cessna 208B Grand Caravan for more than 3,900 miles of flight between military bases and public airports across California and Nevada.
演習期間,喬比的團隊,包括喬比於今年6月收購的Xwing的自治部門,運營着一輛完全自動駕駛的塞斯納2080大篷車,在加利福尼亞和內華達州的軍事基地和公共機場之間飛行了超過3,900英里。
The aircraft autonomously transported essential components to restore the operational readiness of various Air Force assets, flying between 9 locations in a dynamic operational environment. The aircraft, while monitored by a safety pilot, completed a fully autonomous taxi, take-off, and landing at each location during the exercise without requiring on-the-ground infrastructure, including numerous sites that had not been previously visited by the aircraft.
飛機自主運輸重要部件,以恢復空軍各種資產的戰備狀態,在動態作戰環境中在 9 個地點之間飛行。飛機在安全飛行員的監視下,在演習期間在每個地點完成了全自動出租車、起飛和降落,無需地面基礎設施,包括飛機以前從未訪問過的許多地點。
Joby also showcased its ability to remotely supervise the aircraft using a laptop and a satellite communications terminal, both of which are transportable in a single backpack.
Joby還展示了其使用筆記本電腦和衛星通信終端遠程監控飛機的能力,兩者都可以在一個揹包中運輸。
Maxime Gariel, Autonomy Lead at Joby, commented: "We were pleased to continue demonstrating the capabilities of our autonomy technology during Agile Flag 24-3, where we completed dozens of fully autonomous aerial missions and showcased an ability to perform rapid resupply. We look forward to continuing to work with the U.S. Air Force as we further develop the suite of technologies that could enable greater automation or full autonomy, first on the Caravan and then on numerous other aircraft types."
Joby自主負責人Maxime Gariel評論說:「我們很高興在Agile Flag 24-3期間繼續展示我們的自主技術的能力,在那裏我們完成了數十次完全自主的空中任務,展示了快速補給的能力。我們期待繼續與美國空軍合作,進一步開發能夠實現更高自動化或完全自主性的技術套件,首先是在大篷車上,然後在許多其他類型的飛機上。」
Earlier this year, the Xwing team participated in 'Agile Flag 24-1', a similar exercise, completing more than 2,800 miles of fully autonomous flight and demonstrating the ability to integrate autonomous aircraft into congested airspace as well as night operations, sloped runways, and landing at airports with no infrastructure.
今年早些時候,Xwing團隊參加了 「Agile Flag 24-1」,這是一次類似的演習,完成了超過2,800英里的全自動飛行,展示了將自動駕駛飛機整合到擁擠的空域以及夜間作業、傾斜跑道和在沒有基礎設施的機場降落的能力。
"The return on investment for the U.S. Air Force with this technology is significant. By using it to handle smaller cargo, we can preserve cargo aircraft for more critical tasks like transporting large parts or engines," said Col. Max Bremer, Air Mobility Command Special Access Program management officer. "This not only enhances the overall capability of the cargo fleet but also ensures they are used where they are most needed."
「美國空軍使用這項技術的投資回報是可觀的。通過使用它來處理較小的貨物,我們可以保留貨機以執行更關鍵的任務,例如運輸大型零件或發動機。」 空中交通司令部特別准入計劃管理官員馬克斯·布雷默上校說。「這不僅增強了貨運船隊的整體能力,還確保了它們用於最需要的地方。」
The Caravan's autonomous capabilities are enabled by a suite of technologies developed by the Xwing autonomy team, which joined Joby in June 2024, and the aircraft has completed more than 300 fully autonomous flights since 2020.
大篷車的自主能力由Xwing自主團隊開發的一系列技術支持,該團隊於2024年6月加入Joby,自2020年以來,該飛機已經完成了300多次全自動飛行。
Joby's acquisition of Xwing's autonomy division and continued development of autonomy technology demonstrates the Company's commitment to developing next-generation technologies which have the potential to continue to improve safety and widen access to commercial flight. Joby also expects the technology to play an important role in accelerating the execution of existing contract deliverables with the U.S. Department of Defense and expanding the potential for future contracts.
Joby收購了Xwing的自動駕駛部門並持續開發了自動駕駛技術,這表明該公司致力於開發下一代技術,這些技術有可能繼續提高安全性並擴大商用飛行的機會。喬比還預計,該技術將在加快執行與美國國防部簽訂的現有合同和擴大未來簽訂合同的可能性方面發揮重要作用。
