Through the I-TOP Yokohama Demonstration One-Stop Center, Yokohama City supports the smooth implementation of demonstration experiments on cutting-edge technologies such as AI and IoT by startup companies.
The Advanced Robotics Foundation will conduct a longitudinal flight of Tokyo Bay between Yokohama City and Chiba City (approximately 50 km) at flight level 2 (visual and autonomous flight in unmanned areas) with the aim of verifying technology with a view to social change and decarbonization of logistics. In this flight experiment, a fully autonomous flight from takeoff to landing will be made by utilizing a new aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing and the quasi-zenith satellite "Michibiki".
The take-off location will take off from the ESR Yokohama Yukiura Distribution Center (hereinafter referred to as ESR Yokohama Koura DC) project site with the cooperation of ESR Corporation.
