Fully autonomous vehicle technology is conquering the skies, with UAVs being used for various purposes. Now, a purpose-built independent cargo electric plane was unveiled by Pyka. Christened Pelican Cargo is said to be the “largest zero-emission cargo airplane and the first autonomous vehicle of its class,” noted a media release.Â
Pyka, a California-based aviation startup focusing on autonomous vehicle technology, brought out an autonomous electric crop duster called the Pelican Sprayer in 2020.
“We designed this plane to eliminate C02 emissions from the logistics chain while offering a significant speed advantage over ground transportation and operating costs at a fraction of conventional air transportation,” said Michael Norcia, Pyka’s Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder. \
