- “Urban air mobility (UAM) is gaining attention for its efficiency and low carbon footprint. However, the key technologies for low-altitude VTOL infrastructure are still in their early stages. To address this, experts have systematically reviewed progress and trends, proposing a conceptual design for a public multioperator VTOL site to support sustainable low-altitude economy growth.”
