Amprius Technologies, Inc. a leader in next-generation lithium-ion batteries with its Silicon Anode Platform, has been selected by AIBOT, a developer of crewed and uncrewed Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft solutions for advanced air mobility, to be its trusted battery partner.
This partnership underscores both companies’ commitment to innovation and sustainability in the electric aviation space. Amprius’ SiCore™ cells, renowned for their high energy density, power, and reliability, will play a pivotal role in powering AIBOT’s aiEVTOL ecosystem, which includes both its heavy-lift air cargo eVTOL drone and single-pilot, six-passenger eVTOL air taxi aircraft.
“AIBOT’s focus on developing cutting-edge autonomous electric aircraft solutions aligns with our commitment to pushing the boundaries of battery technology,” said Dr. Kang Sun, CEO of Amprius.
“We applaud their strategy to validate their autonomous aircraft through a phased approach, accelerating their time-to-market. Our SiCore batteries offer unmatched performance in electric mobility, and we are confident that our technology can help AIBOT achieve their goal of creating a connected, autonomous, and ultra-safe aircraft ecosystem.”
By harnessing the power of AI and cutting-edge battery technology, AIBOT’s innovative suite of AI-driven electric mobility solutions encompasses Urban Air Mobility, Unmanned Aerial Systems, and Electric Vehicles.
AIBOT is poised to revolutionize mobility, crafting a connected, autonomous, and ultra-safe aircraft ecosystem. With plans to unveil its first commercialized preproduction unmanned aircraft in 2024 and bring a single-pilot, six-passenger eVTOL manned aircraft to market in the following years, AIBOT is committed to shaping the future of electric aviation.
“Our ambition with AIBOT’s aiEVTOL ecosystem is to provide a robust platform that continuously supports our commercialization effort and enables even higher production volumes, thereby energizing the supply chain and contributing significantly to the industry,” said Max Ma, President of AIBOT.
“This endeavor is not just about harnessing advanced technologies; it’s about creating an environment where innovation leads to tangible advancements in commercialization and supply chain development. This collaboration is a critical step forward in our commitment to delivering an aiEVTOL ecosystem that is revolutionary and sustainable. Together, we are paving the way for an era where AI-enhanced flying is not just a possibility, but a common enjoyable reality.”
