A recent announcement by the head of Dubai's Roads and Transportation Agency has claimed that the EHang 184 drone, which is capable of carrying a person, will be available from July this year.

Chinese drone maker Ehang has unveiled what it claims is the world's first autonomous helicopter drone. The Ehang 184 is a 440-pound, eight-rotor aircraft which the company claims is able to lift a single person 500 metres into the air and fly them to any point on Google Maps, avoiding objects automatically and safely handling take-off and landing (as long as it can be reached within the 23 minutes battery limit).
