Welcome to an all-electric, autonomous aerial journey. By opting to fly with us or utilize our services, you not only experience cutting-edge technology but also actively participate in revolutionizing coastal transportation and furthering our mission to create a cleaner and more accessible world. Our all-electric autonomous sea-aircraft are engineered to connect people with the places, possessions, and experiences they cherish. Whether it's a shared or private flight, GM is committed to elevating the quality of life in our coastal cities.
Mobility
Our transportation system offers a new, clean, and efficient way to move around crowded coastal cities. By using existing marinas, we aim to diversify water travel. We're focused on smaller, faster water transport that operates frequently, providing increased access to our waterfronts. We believe this approach can contribute to the growth of new infrastructure, boost real estate, and positively impact the economies of coastal cities and islands. Our network combines various water-based transportation methods like boats, ships, and ferries to efficiently move both people and goods across water bodies. This integrated system connects coastal and inland areas, enhancing overall transportation connectivity. Our broader goal is to unify marine, ground, and air travel to create a comprehensive and interconnected transportation system.
Autonomous
Our sea-aircraft features state-of-the-art autonomous technologies that operate without direct human intervention. These systems utilize advanced sensors, navigation software, and artificial intelligence to control both water and air movements. We have the potential to redefine marine transportation.
Ground Effect
The ground effect, known as the Wing-in-Ground (WIG) effect, occurs when an aircraft with wings flies in close proximity to the water surface. This low-altitude flight diminishes wing drag because the water obstructs the air from spilling over the wingtips, thereby reducing the creation of wingtip vortices—a common source of drag. Consequently, the aircraft achieves an enhanced lift-to-drag ratio, leading to more efficient flight. Additionally, the air pressure beneath the wings increases due to their proximity to the water, resulting in the wings generating greater lift compared to flying at higher altitudes.
Electric Hydrofoil System
Hydrofoil system is a technology used in watercraft to enhance performance by employing submerged wings, or foils, beneath the hull. These foils, similar to airplane wings, generate lift as the vessel gains speed, raising the craft above the water's surface. As the hull lifts, drag is significantly reduced, allowing the boat to move faster with less resistance. This system enhances stability and control, providing a smoother ride, particularly in rough waters. The hydrofoil's design enables the vessel to "fly" above the water, reducing contact and friction, which results in increased speed and improved fuel efficiency.
Ultra-Fast Charger
Ultra-fast chargers for electric aircraft represent a pioneering leap in aviation technology. These charging systems are designed to rapidly recharge the batteries of electric planes, significantly reducing turnaround times between flights. Utilizing cutting-edge technology, these chargers can swiftly replenish the aircraft's batteries, allowing for quick and efficient recharges while optimizing operational schedules. These systems aim to support the burgeoning electric aviation industry by facilitating swift turnarounds and minimizing downtime. With the ability to charge electric aircraft in a fraction of the time previously required, these ultra-fast chargers play a pivotal role in advancing the feasibility and practicality of electric air travel, promoting sustainability and reducing reliance on traditional fuel sources.
Solar Powered
Incorporating solar panels on aircraft specifically designed for the Mediterranean region represents an innovative approach toward sustainable aviation. With ample sunlight available in this region, the utilization of solar panels on aircraft can harness abundant solar energy. These panels serve as a supplementary power source, aiding in powering onboard systems and reducing reliance on traditional fuel sources. The Mediterranean's consistent sunshine offers an ideal environment for capturing solar energy, potentially increasing the operational efficiency of these aircraft. Integrating solar panels aligns with the region's commitment to environmentally friendly practices, contributing to reduced carbon emissions and promoting eco-friendly aviation initiatives in this sun-rich area.
