SILENT DRONE TECHNOLOGY. EVOLUTION IN URBAN CARGO DELIVERY
OUR TECHNOLOGY
01 / SILENT PROPULSION
02 / FIRST-TO-MARKET ION PROPELLED DRONE
03 / ADAPTABLE TO DIFFERENT ATMOSPHERES (SPACE EXPLORATION)
04 / LIGHT WEIGHT
05 / ZERO CARBON EMISSIONS
06 / LOW FAILURE RATE WITH REDUNDANT SAFETY SYSTEMS
A BREAK-THRU 100 YEARS IN THE MAKING
Since Thomas Townsend Brown discovered propulsion generated by asymmetrical electrodes in 1921 there had not been a significant break-thru which allow generation ion propulsion to levels which made it possible to develop VTOL crafts in atmospheric conditions. The Air Tantrum™ Technology (Patent Pending) uses innovative physics principles which increase thrust to unprecedented levels.
NOISE MATTERS
Research conducted by NASA in 2017 and a follow-up analysis published in 2018 found that drone noise ranks highest in terms of annoyance. According to the study, the noise made by road traffic was "systematically judged to be less annoying" than the high-pitched buzzing made by drones. Participants were not told the noise they were hearing was from drones, but all listeners consistently rank drone noise as more annoying than noise from airplanes or delivery vehicles due to psychoacoustical properties not easily modeled or captured by traditional acoustical metrics.

WHAT EXPERTS SAY
“Noise is probably the largest limiting factor for the public acceptability of drone operations”
I am concerned that drones are taking to the air without a lot of thought for the ears of people on the ground. Will there be a weight limit on delivery-drone payloads? Who will monitor the sound levels, and how? Should there be a curfew on hours of operation? There must be a reason companies don’t include the sound of the drone in advertising materials – and it’s probably not because they sound so nice. In this ad, the drone seems silent.
