该实验涉及由福特及其子公司量子信号AI改进的北极星GEM低速电动航天飞机。疫情刺激了快递服务的发展，其中一个有趣的领域是无人机。福特已经在这一领域进行了几年的试验，已经推出了披萨、餐厅和超市订单、小学生蔬菜和包裹等项目。这方面的一个新项目是:在底特律西南部组织的为行动不便的老年人送餐。里约热内卢Vista底特律住宅区的24名居民将在6个月内获得由自动穿梭车带来的免费食物。车身上的图形反映了包容社会的理念，由底特律艺术学院的学生布鲁克·斯诺(Brooke Snow)发明。为了画这幅画，她从福特公司获得了5000美元，她将把这笔钱花在学费上。该交付计划由福特、福特汽车公司基金、福特资源与参与中心(FREC) on The Go、拾荒者社区食品银行共同开发。合作伙伴计划沿着固定路线从福特资源中心运输总计4.5吨:这些将是罐头和新鲜食品、牛奶、奶酪(包裹的组成将根据试点项目参与者的意愿进行调整)。由于这只是一个旨在展示无人机如何改善世界的实验，出于安全考虑，项目人员仍将在航天飞机驾驶舱中工作。 And in addition to this, a dispatching office has been created: the operator can completely take over control of the shuttle in emergency situations. In the future, such shuttles can transport parcels and packages with food completely without the participation of people. And if an elderly person is unable to go outside to pick up the cargo from the car, a walking robot courier will come to the rescue, which could drive to addresses in the same delivery van. Bonus The future is being formed gradually from small pieces like this project. Ford has announced that the Ford Bronco Sport is the first model in the world to feature 100% recycled ocean plastic parts. Garbage, discarded fishing nets are being caught by workers of DSM Engineering Materials in the Indian Ocean and Arabian Sea, improving the ecological situation. After processing, plastic granules are obtained from the nets. They are sent to the casting of parts. Ford uses these to make five-gram clips for the wiring harness that goes to the curtain airbags. The company says the cells are 10% cheaper than those made from petroleum-derived polymer and release less greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. A tiny detail is one of the first steps in a circular economy designed to reduce human impact on nature.
