Ama-drones asheshe abe yinsakavukela futhi akuwona kuphela abezempi kanye nabezomthetho abanawo. Ngisho nengane enezindlu ezimbalwa ine-quadrocopter ekhanyiswe ngama-LED ayindiza ebusuku izikhathi ezimbalwa ngeviki, okungenza ngithathe ividiyo ngiyilayishe ku-YouTube ukuze ngibone ukuthi bangaki abayithola iwukubona kwe-UFO okuthembekile.
Ngaphandle kokuhlasela kwe-alien, wonke ama-drones akhiwe namuhla ajwayele ukwakhiwa ngezingxenye ezakhiwe ngaphambili ezishaywa ndawonye, ngokuvamile ezizungeza indlu yenjini. Lokho kungase kungabe kusaba njalo ngenxa yokuphrinta kwe-3D kanye nonjiniyela abathile abahlakaniphile abavela e-University of Sheffield's Advanced Manufacturing Research Center.
Esikhundleni senqwaba yezingxenye ezikhiqiziwe, onjiniyela baklame i-UAV yabo besebenzisa i-ABS-M30 filament ukuze benze i-airframe ye-UAV ibe yisamba sezingcezu ezingu-9 (okuhlanganisa ama-elevon angu-2 namaphiko), konga kokubili isikhathi nemali ngezindlela zokukhiqiza ezivamile. Ithimba likhethe ukwakha i-drone yalo lisebenzisa iphrinta ye-Stratasys Fortis 900mc 3D lisebenzisa indlela ye-FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) phezu kwe-stereo lithography kanye ne-laser sintering evame ukutholakala ekwenziweni kwensimbi kwe-UAV. Ngokuvamile, indlela ye-FDM ingadinga ukufakwa kwezakhiwo 'zokweseka' ukuze kuvinjwe ukuwohloka lapho kunyatheliswa, nokho onjiniyela bakwazi ukucwenga ngokucophelela ukwakheka kwabo ukuze bahlanganise izici 'eziyingqayizivele' ezisiza ukuvimbela lokho kuguquka ngenkathi kugcinwa izici zendiza.

Ingxenye enkulu kakhulu mayelana ne-UAV yabo ukuthi ingenziwa cishe lapho idingeka khona, kuthathe amahora angaphansi kwangama-24 ukwakha esikhundleni samahora angaphezu kuka-120 obekungawathatha ngokuvamile. I-airframe (enesisindo esingu-4.4lbs esinezimpiko ezicishe zibe ngu-5ft) ingahlukaniswa ibe izingcezu ezimbili ukuze kube lula ukuhamba, okungenzeka ukuthi ingene kubhaka omkhulu uma kudingeka.
Ngokusobala, injini (ibhendi yenjoloba elimele kanye nophephela wokhuni?) kanye nezinto zikagesi zilinganiselwe ngosayizi wayo, zikhawulela isikhathi sokundiza nebanga, nokho iqembu lihlela ukwakha inguqulo enkulu ekwazi ukundiza isikhathi eside kanye nomthwalo okhokhelwayo. umthamo. Ukusetshenziswa okuhleliwe kwe-UAV entsha kuhlanganisa ukuhlolisisa, ukusesha nokuhlenga kanye nosizo lokusiza abantu, nokho ukuletha amaphakheji (uhlobo olungewona OweSihogo Somlilo) avela e-Amazon naku-Google ngokuqinisekile aphume embuzweni.
