Likee partners with flying taxi company EHang

The science fiction phenomenon is coming true as we get closer to attaining mass-produced air mobility. Though these AI-controlled flying robot taxis are still undergoing a fair amount of testing, interested audiences now have a verified platform to follow the progress. Likee, a popular short-video platform, has partnered with EHang, a world-leading Autonomous Aerial Vehicle (AAV) technology company, to showcase ‘flying taxis’ and their practices on the forum.

The partnership will see EHang, a China-based autonomous technology firm, set up its official account on Likee where it will post videos of passenger-grade flight demos and aerial media light shows from around the world. EHang is well-versed with the Middle East audience as the firm has been carrying out successful fully autonomous trial flights in Qatar and UAE. The flight demo footprint is further scattered in 11 countries worldwide.
