Traffic lights, traffic jams and long traveling time on the road? That is going to be a thing of the past. SkyTran, conceptualized by Unimodal Transport Solutions, is positioned as the ‘vehicle of the future’. One can expect high speed point-to-point, non-stop travel and at the same time, enjoy full web access, entertainment and climate controls during one’s travel.

The SkyTran system is an individual, two passenger vehicle that relies on a maglev system from overhead guideways. These are conveniently located every quarter mile throughout the city. With no fixed destinations, commuters can enter at any departure portal, get into the first empty vehicle and select their destination and off you go with speeds up to 240 km/h between cities.

With so many people hopping in and out of their pods, possible traffic congestion or potential accidental hazards in the air are valid questions to ask. This driverless vehicle uses computer, sensors and radar collision avoidance systems to navigate, so sit easy.
