How does a bird fly?
For human flight, we borrowed the wings, but made them fixed and added propellers, to cheat the mechanical incompetence.
I wouldn't be shocked that radar/lidar/sonar/whatever sensors are what it takes to cover the incompetence in matching human brain+vision.
Heck, use multiple "brains" and give each veto power on moving the vehicle. Supposing that stopping doesn't kill you, that would at most frequently annoy the driver, and sometimes save his life or someone else's.
- ummonk 5y agoWell also the largest animal to ever fly only weighed a few hundred lbs so we’re also just limited by the kind of flight we’re trying to do. At least today we probably could build a craft that flies by flapping its wings but what would be the point?
