Have you heard of
Terrafugia? Maybe you've heard of the vehicle they are developing,
the Transition? The Transition is a hybrid electric flying car with
vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capabilities that won't require
an airport runway, and it will drive on all roads and highways. It
appears that the current move is towards automated flying, where you
just tell the car where you want to go, and it will fly you there.
Automated piloting isn't something unheard of—Google has been
developing self-driving cars for several years now. Uber has also
been looking into self-driving cars, and they have been researching
VTOL technology. Jeff Holden, Uber's head of product, claims that in
10 years, “passenger drones” may be ferrying you to your
destination through the skies!
