We recently flew a series of aircraft flying over an array of calibrated microphones, demonstrating the low noise profile of our prototype electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft and setting a benchmark for the industry.
In addition to the Joby aircraft, the ‘parade’ of aircraft included two fixed-wing airplanes and three helicopters of a similar size — all flown over the microphone array at the same speed (100 kts) and approximate altitude (1570 ft).
“We set out to develop an aircraft that mimicked natural sounds, like the wind in the trees or the sound of the ocean. It’s just amazing to hear the contrast between existing aircraft and what we have developed over more than ten years of hard work and focus on acoustics,” said JoeBen Bevirt, founder and CEO of Joby.
We aim for our aircraft to blend into the background environment of communities in which we operate, enabling aerial ridesharing without any compromises, which we intend to launch in 2024.
Check out previous videos on our channel for demonstrations of the Joby aircraft's low acoustic profile during take-off and hover.
