A solution to stabilizing eVTOL and UAM passenger bodies for medical air transportation (air ambulances)
Abstract
This research paper proposes an innovative solution to address challenges faced by air ambulances, particularly in ensuring patient stability and comfort during flight. The solution comprises a gyroscopic body design and an AI-controlled stabilization system. The gyroscopic design involves a multi-layered structure with interconnected components: a primary hollow base housing flight equipment, a secondary stabilizer maintaining lateral stability, and a central medical body for patients and medical teams. The stabilization system employs modified carpentry levels, cameras, and spherical weights to detect and correct changes in the medical body's center of gravity. The proposed solution enhances patient stability, mitigates motion sickness, and provides a stable platform for medical procedures. It offers potential benefits such as smoother patient transfers, improved flight efficiency, and safer working conditions for the flight crew. The integration of advanced technology showcases the synergy between aerospace engineering and AI, highlighting the adaptability of modern tools in enhancing air ambulance operations. Overall, this comprehensive solution aims to revolutionize air ambulance services, enhancing patient care and operational efficiency in emergency medical scenarios.
